One of the most important reasons why The Department of Workforce Career Development stays on the cutting edge of Career & Technical Education is our business partnerships. Between our connections to businesses with our House Building Program to our Business Advisory Council and more, we are able to stay on top of what are the essential careers that are in demand for our students in Virginia and our country.

Our student events would not be possible without our connection to our business partners. Our Letter of Intent Signing Day and our Career Rodeo is heavily dependent on the participation of our business partners. They are there because they see their influence in action when looking for students to hire for their in-demand essential careers.
