(Champaign Technology & Employment Center)

The Federal Workforce Investment Act (WIA) of 1998 provides the framework for Champaign Technology & Employment Center (C-TEC) as a “One Stop” employment delivery system.

“C-TEC provides a central point of access for employment, training, and related services provided by many area agencies and service providers."

C-TEC works with its partner agencies, along with similar centers in Clark, Logan, Madison and Union Counties, to enhance our regional workforce.

Through this collaborative partnership, employers and job seekers can access many services at one central location, a true “one-stop” solution!

Our free services are designed to help area employers locate qualified candidates and to provide access to training programs and information services necessary to remain competitive in today’s labor market. We also work to supply the region’s residents with the tools they need to manage their careers.

Working in collaboration with our One Stop Partners and the Champaign County Board of Commissioners, the One Stop’s primary focus is to:

Assess the workforce needs of area employers
Assess the employment and training needs of job seekers
Identify fiscal and other resources in the community
Develop priorities that include needs of local businesses, determining which populations to serve, and how to best facilitate training needs in the region
Ensure that individuals have access to core services including vocational assessments, job matching, and referrals for services
Ensure that parameters are established for funding of training programs
Locate and target resources necessary to meet the priorities
