The video highlights public and private sectors working together on training initiatives, continuing education, and outreach to help provide a labor force with the skill sets needed to succeed in today’s economy.

“This series of videos reinforces that Wicomico County is Open for Business and allows us to share the story of success in our community,” said Wicomico County Executive Bob Culver.
