Workforce Outsource Services, Inc. is engaged in research activities and reporting that measure the intellectual, social, and self-esteem of its students engaged in the program. Workforce Outsource Services also offers a community-based initiative to assist our local community in New York and Detroit to take advantage of opportunities for advancement. This outreach, called WOS in the Community, enables us to provide a variety of training and opportunities to bolster the employment-related skills of residents.Through this effort, we have established the WOS Learning Center to offer free workshops and classes that will help individuals navigate our ever-changing economic landscape. The workshops include Business Writing Essentials; Interviewing in Person and Over the Phone; Professionalism in the Workplace; and other interpersonal skills development such as teamwork, time-management and goal setting.The research results are reported in aggregate and used solely towards the general awareness of how under-served populations respond to assistance and higher education. Research results are also published in academic peer-reviewed journals.WOS On Demand is a national program to allow sponsoring corporations to assist underserved individuals or small groups as opposed to sponsoring a cohort.During the year we generated $3,447,000 in program service revenues for WOS on Demand and incurred $2,481,000 in program expenditures and incurred $176,000 in program expenditures on WOS in the Community.We have added a new pilot program during the year in the Tri-State, WOS Digital, an online platform that empowers corporate sponsors to search for early-career, diverse job-seekers for either short-term or long-term engagements. Corporate partners can search our database of candidates by location, skillsets, and education levels to meet their specific organizational needs. When candidates join WOS Digital, they are provided with the network, tools, and resources needed to develop both their interpersonal and technical skills. Our dedicated team provides them with the guidance and support needed to move their careers forward, and once candidates have reached a proficient level of workplace readiness, they become searchable in our database. After corporate partners select one or more of our candidates, WOS continues to work with both the corporate partner and candidate(s) to ensure the transition into the role and workplace is a success.
