SDWP SDCCD Joint Partnership Committee

On this page:

The San Diego Workforce Partnership (workforce Partnership) and The San Diego Community College District formed a Joint Partnership Committee in Spring 2021 to strengthen partnership opportunities and develop a structure to support collaborative activities.

At that time, this Joint Partnership was focused on three primary areas of collaboration:

  1. Referrals and Recruitment
  2. Program and Process Awareness
  3. Job Placement & Employability

Each year, priority projects were identified and pursued through the districtwide committee and workgroups. 

The Joint Partnership is tied to districtwide workforce development goals and the SDCCD Board of Trustees board goals.

  • SDCCD 2021-2022 Board Goal #14.4: Continuing the productive working relationship with the Board of the San Diego Workforce Partnership to jointly address workforce needs in the region including advocacy for racial equity in employment and compensation as a priority for the San Diego Workforce Partnership and the region.

Additionally, senior leadership of both organizations collaborate in other ways:

  • San Diego Workforce Partnership leadership participates on the SDCCD Corporate Council 
  • SDCCD College Presidents (rotating representation) particpates on San Diego Workforce Partnership's Board.

Priority Projects:

  • 2025-26: Re-connections; direct College engagement for exploration of co-location; priority population collaborations
