The Orange County Workforce Development Board (OCWDB), appointed by the Orange County Board of Supervisors, brings together leaders from local businesses, education, labor organizations, community-based organizations, and economic and community development agencies. Over half of the members represent the private sector, including business owners, chief executives, operating officers, or other executives with optimum policymaking or hiring authority. The OCWDB targets specific industry representation to ensure strong alignment with local workforce needs.

In partnership with the Orange County Board of Supervisors, the OCWDB oversees workforce development activities across Orange County. OCWDB designs and implements programs for businesses, adults, youth and dislocated workers through its five-year Strategic Local Plan, reflecting a commitment to building a comprehensive workforce system that benefits both job seekers and employers.
