2015 Bartow Workforce Needs Assessment

Employers and education partners throughout Bartow County, Georgia, have a long history of partnership. That partnership was called upon three years ago and again recently, to help articulate the collective needs of Bartow employers in a way that educators and community stakeholders (i.e., Bartow County Secondary and Post-Secondary Education partners, Employers, and Community-Based Organizations) can relate to and set goals for those needs. The resulting work then was the 2012 Bartow Workforce Needs Assessment, and the resulting work now is this 2015 Bartow Workforce Needs Assessment.

The 2015 Bartow Workforce Needs Assessment Committee’s five major tasks included: Compile Existing Research, Prepare the Data Collection Tool, Launch the Survey, Collect & Analyze the Confidential Employer Data, and Prepare the Final Report. The study period was from April through August, with the survey period among all Bartow employers from May 28 – June 20, 2015.
