Workforce services are any services rendered to or benefit workers. They include career services and workforce development. Workforce service providers are workforce developers and a wide range of the entities that are in the business of career services. These services include career assistance, job search support, and employment placement.
Employment placement is a service that educational institutions, employment agencies, and third-party recruiters offer to help workers find work.
In the United States, supported employment is an employment arrangement in which employees are people with disabilities, including intellectual disabilities, mental health, and traumatic brain injury, among others. The government agency assists with obtaining and maintaining employment, reimburses a part of employer's expenses, or, most likely, both.
Job clubs are non-profit groups such as the Career Network Ministry that help people in career transitions.
Government employment offices are government offices that offer workforce services and, often, serve as employment agencies.
Workforce dealers act on behalf of those workers who are looking for jobs.
Some employers organize and/or support workforce development for their employees; this is employer-assisted development.
Guilds are organizations of people who do the same job or have the same interests; career services usually are a part of their offerings.
However, one's personal BOD might provide the one with the most effective career services. BOD refers to a board of directors in corporations. This is a group of key stakeholders in formulating and achieving one's career objectives.
