The DUKE Heights BIA has initiated an Employment Hub that focuses on the demand side of the employment equation and works on the needs of the businesses in the area to open up training and employment opportunities that will assist our membership. Working with industry sectors, we are developing industry solutions for businesses in the area that will provide a new level of support for employers and employees, giving the area a competitive advantage in the region. Aiding businesses to gain and learn more inclusive and sustainable management practices, as well as providing wrap around services to employers and employees will help to create new and better employment opportunities, while benefiting our membership.
The DUKE Heights Employment Hub is a place where, someone, who is unemployed or underemployed, or needs training, or someone who has a business, or is starting a business, can get assistance in terms of information and resources. DUKE Heights serves as a catalyst for actions among specific groups based on their unique needs and demands.
