Established in 1985, CWE oversees a network of over 40 job training and placement providers across the five boroughs, serving as the workforce development arm of the New York City Central Labor Council, AFL-CIO. With a focus on training services for incumbent members across 36 union locals, CWE has enrolled nearly 40,000 individuals in over 4,100 funded classes and placement initiatives.
CWE regularly commissions reports in partnership with academics, unions, and non-profit organizations to assess the state of the NYC workforce and evaluate their programming.
