WorkSource Metro Atlanta is composed of five boards: WorkSource Atlanta, WorkSource Cobb, WorkSource DeKalb, WorkSource Fulton, and WorkSource Atlanta Regional. These boards work independently to meet the training and educational needs of individuals and businesses’ workforce needs within their designated geographic areas. Additionally, for the first time, the new federal funding act, Workforce Innovation and Opportunity Act (WIOA), calls for the boards to work together to ensure the development of a well-trained workforce that will position the region to compete in a rapidly changing global economy.
For nonpublic training providers interested in becoming a Georgia Eligible Training Provider for WIOA services, please complete the following application: Provider Application January 2017. You must be currently approved by the Nonpublic Postsecondary Education Commission and provide a copy of NPEC certification for each program.

Part of a Statewide Effort
The regional efforts of WorkSource Metro Atlanta operate under the Technical College System of Georgia – Office of Workforce Development, which functions as administrator for WorkSource Georgia, the state’s federally-funded employment and training system. At a local level, the Workforce Division provides WIOA funds and technical assistance to Local Workforce Development Areas across the state. WIOA funds are administered specifically through services geared toward helping disadvantaged citizens obtain meaningful employment. The Workforce Division’s involvement includes providing mandatory statewide activities and tools, such as a case management system and programmatic and financial monitoring, which is completed annually for each area.
