Replacing America's Job Bank
Vollman, Jim
Community College Journal, v79 n3 p37-38 Dec 2008-Jan 2009
The Job Central National Labor Exchange (www.jobcentral.com) has become the effective replacement for America's Job Bank with state workforce agencies and, increasingly, with community colleges throughout the country. The American Association of Community Colleges (AACC) has formed a partnership with Job Central to promote its use throughout the community college system. Colleges can use Job Central at no charge. They can add a simple link to their sites or add a search "widget" that integrates the job search tool right into the college's Web site. A number of colleges already feature the Job Central service at their career centers, and it is part of a larger suite of tools provided by the National Association of Colleges and Employers (NACE) through NACElink (www.nacelink.com). This article provides a little background to help understand the value of Job Central and how it harnessed the power of the Internet on behalf of employers and job seekers.
