WDC Board

Our Board

The WDC board, with about 40 members, is a committed, active group that is made up of a majority from the private sector, as well as leaders from labor groups, youth and adult education, and state and local government agencies. Board members participate on several committees, most of which meet about five times a year for an hour and a half. In addition, the full membership of the WDC board meets three times a year, including our annual meeting and reception in June. See board meeting calendar...
