How-To Guide
Small Business Partnership Toolkit
About
As the economic driver of the 21st century, small businesses and the organizations that serve them are critical partners to the workforce development system. This toolkit is designed to assist your local area in building strong partnerships with small business-serving organizations in your community, such as the Chamber of Commerce, business incubators, and Small Business Development Centers (SBDCs).
In addition to promising practices from local workforce boards around the country, this guide contains "grab and go" tools such as self-assessments, questionnaires to help develop marketing products, and sample partner meeting agendas.
