An approach to economic development that attempts to enhance regional economic stability and prosperity by focusing on the people rather than the businesses themselves. This helps in creating a human-resource strategy. Workforce development has gone from a problem-focused approach, with addressing low-skilled worker issues or the need for more employees in a particular industry, to a holistic approach that considers participants’ many barriers and the overall regional needs.
