About Us

Workforce Development Board

The North Central Texas Workforce Development Board (Board) oversees the planning, oversight, policy guidance and design of services in 12 Texas Workforce Centers located across the 14-county workforce development area. The North Central Texas Workforce Development Board is one of 28 Workforce Development boards in the State of Texas and is one of the larger boards in Texas.

Workforce Board Members are leaders within their communities and are appointed by the chief elected official of the county in which they reside or operate their business. Because businesses are the driving force within the economy, the Board is comprised largely of private business leaders. However, the Board includes representatives from the other key partners within the workforce system: economic development entities, chambers of commerce, labor, education and community organizations.

The Workforce Development Board and Executive Committee meet bi-monthly.

  • The next Executive Committee Meeting will be held at 1:00 p.m. on Tuesday, July 11, 2023 at 600 Six Flags Drive, Suite 300, Arlington, TX 76011, Tejas Conference Room, CPIII. Agenda will be posted prior to the meeting.
  • The next Workforce Board Meeting will be held at 9:30 a.m. on Tuesday, July 25, 2023 at 616 Six Flags Drive, Arlington, TX 76011, Transportation Council Room, CPII. Agenda will be posted prior to the meeting.
