When ProEdge Precision needed skilled talent quickly to support its operations,the company reached out to the Centralina WDB for assistance. The Business Services Team evaluated the company"s needs and put a plan of action in place. The WDB-sponsored NCWorks Career Center-Statesville utilized On-the-Job training (OJT) services to help train new hires; it also screened and referred other qualified talent to the company,and assisted in rewriting job descriptions to increase recruiting success.
In the last year,ProEdge Precision,LLC,employed three workers using Centralina WDB-funded OJT resources. The company is also using an Incumbent Worker Training Grant offered by the Centralina Workforce Development Board to up-skill their current employees."
