Gov. Tony Evers is joining the Wisconsin Department of Workforce Development (DWD) to highlight expanded services available through two new mobile career labs. The new vehicles, along with a large mobile career lab that debuted in 2019, allow DWD and its workforce partners to bring online job search tools and services to locations across Wisconsin.
The labs bring services to those who have challenges accessing them, employers who have a training or hiring need, and partners who request additional resources. They also assist with employer hiring events, job fairs, and other recruitment events that occur outside of the typical job center setting. The large lab is equipped with 10 computers, table seating for four, and three display screens. The smaller labs each offer four laptops, one built-in monitor, and a mobile printer.
DWD has highlighted lab services at events throughout Wisconsin including recent events in Beloit and Kenosha, as well as during a visit including Gov. Evers to the Central Wisconsin Center in Madison.
The two new mobile career labs are supported through American Rescue Plan Act funds. To view the mobile career labs’ upcoming schedule and to request a visit to a local workforce event, visit the Mobile Career Lab page.
