Business Training Opportunities

Currituck works with the State to attract and retain high growth industries which increasingly depend on our capacity to supply a skilled-labor force. The NC Department of Commerce implements and supports programs that upgrade the skills of our existing workers, better prepare our emerging workers, and reconnect dislocated workers and welfare recipients to the world of work.

Division of Employment and Training (DET)
The Division of Employment and Training administers a statewide system of workforce programs that prepare North Carolina’s citizens facing economic disadvantage, job loss, and other serious barriers to employment for participation in the labor force. These programs provide high support training and other services that result in increased employment and earnings, increased educational and occupational skills, and decreased welfare dependency. The statewide system is designed to improve the quality of the workforce as well as the state’s competitiveness in a global economy.
