Lewis County has been certified as a Work Ready Community in Progress.
“This has been about a year’s worth of work and involved several groups,” said Judge Executive Todd Ruckel.
The Kentucky Workforce Innovation Board (KWIB) certifies counties as Work Ready or Work Ready in Progress based on the quality of their labor force and the community commitment to continuous improvement of the workforce.
The program builds on the concept of ‘‘certified employability’’ from the individual level as indicated by a person’s attainment of diplomas, degrees, certificates or other credentials, to the community level.
