PROJECT MANAGEMENT

Career TEAM WORKFORCE SOLUTIONS

Since inception in 1996, the Career TEAM "work first" philosophy has proven to eradicate poverty and radically improve the mindset of the hard to serve through gainful employment. 

Studies show that there remains a major cultural disconnect between the public sector and the private sector. Career TEAM continues to bridge that gap by acting as a professional liaison between government funded job seekers and private sector hiring authorities.
The primary benefits to partnering with Career TEAM. include: reduced cost per client served, reduced administrative costs, a more aggressive approach to private sector job creation, better long term client retention and an enhancement to the workforce industry brand. 

Gone are the days where taxpayer dollars funded education and training programs which produced marginal results. While many organizations have good intentions, Career TEAM believes that performance based contracting, where state and federal funding sources reward documented placement and retention, is the most cost effective use of shrinking government funding. Career TEAM subscribes to the "compensation follows contribution" model and continues to advocate that performance is enhanced when providers are held accountable for outcomes. 

Career TEAM continues to enjoy tremendous success because its innovative delivery system moves hard to serve clients into qualified openings; saving taxpayers and the officials who oversee these funds time, energy and money. For example, if a family of three on welfare for five years in the US costs taxpayers $75,000, Career TEAM can engage, place and retain that client for less than $5,000. That is cost effective!
