Who Are We?

The purpose of the Region 1 Workforce Investment Board is “to promote effective economic and workforce development partnerships that develop and sustain productive workers for business, and create prosperous communities for our citizens”.

The Region 1 WORKFORCE West Virginia Career Centers can assist you in a variety of ways. Whether you are a part of the emerging workforce, a job seeker or an employer, your local Career Center should be the first place you turn for all of your workforce needs. We are here to help you! We pride ourselves on ensuring you have an excellent experience using our services. Your comments and suggestions are very important to us. If you want to speak with someone regarding a recent experience at any of Region 1’s WORKFORCE West Virginia Career Centers, please email Melissa A. Aguilar, Executive Director at maguilar@r1workforcewv.org.

And….just remember: For many people a job is more than an income – it’s an important part of who we are. So a career transition of any sort is one of the most unsettling experiences you may face in your life. Regardless if you are hunting for a new career because of being unemployed or if you are hunting for the right career to have a better life, it takes hard work. For those willing to work hard and be persistent, opportunity will come… and we at Region 1 want to help you be successful.
