Engaging Stakeholders: Checklists for Action

This section contains a series of checklists that can help users identify other organizations or firms with a vested interest in the outcome of a sectoral initiative (such as unions, employers, the workforce system, education, training providers, economic development, community based organizations, and others).  The first two checklists provide a step-by-step guide for unions and employers seeking to form a partnership and engage other organizations critical to a successful workforce initiative.  The final checklist serves as a guide for Workforce Investment Boards interested in engaging labor unions – and/or unionized employers – in their area in a sector-based workforce initiative.  

Checklists

• Forming a labor-management training partnership
• Connecting a labor-management partnership to the workforce system (for partnerships)
• Working with a labor-management training partnership (for WIBs)
