Worksystems convenes partners, designs programs, coordinates services, and invests funds to help job seekers acquire the skills they need to support themselves and to meet the staffing needs of regional industry. The region’s public workforce development system – WorkSource Portland Metro (WSPM) – serves as our primary investment vehicle and we provide oversight to ensure the highest quality services.

Worksystems convenes and coordinates a wide array of partners connected to the WorkSource system. These include both “co-located” partners who provide services onsite at WorkSource Centers as well as organizations that are not physically onsite but have programmatic connections to WorkSource. Some are funded by Worksystems while others are separately funded and partner with WorkSource in order to provide better services through a collaborative system approach. 

Two WorkSource Express Centers are satellite locations established to increase access for the downtown Portland homeless community and for pre-release services at the Washington County Jail.
