About Us

We strive to identify and address the workforce needs of new and existing business and industry by developing mutually beneficial partnerships with education systems, training providers,  job seekers, and the local community

Southeast AlabamaWorks, Region 6, is one of seven regional workforce councils in Alabama, created to serve business and industry through the development of a skilled workforce and pipeline of future employees.

We implement strategies developed by the Alabama Workforce Council – AlabamaWorks – on a local level to ensure every community, from urban areas to rural towns,  has an industry-led council using available resources to help local businesses and workers prosper.
