MIAMI - Feb. 6, 2023 - PRLog -- Calvetta Phair, CEO of America's Workforce Solution, LLC (AWS); provides Professional and Business Services to include Staffing, Sourcing and Recruitment for Department of Defense (DoD) Prime Contractors, Small Businesses and the Public/Private sectors. Headquartered in Miami, Florida, with a satellite office in Atlanta, GA, AWS services are provided internationally. AWS National Charitable Partner - 'The On It Foundation', is a 501 (c)(3) public-non-profit providing free computers with STEAM virtual and onsite events to K-12 student and their families that receive a free or reduced school lunch, attend a public / home school and reside within the United States. Founded by Ms. Phair in 1999, the organization has been providing free resources to families in need of computers and 21st Century Skill Sets for over 22 years.
Ms. Phair has also created a staffing application ReferAll, which mobilizes Ms. Phair's current business model by streamlining the referral sourcing and recruitment process while providing a social enterprise component, (Powered by The On It Foundation). "Over 45% of employee hires come from referrals. Referred candidates offer longevity and higher morale in a company – yet companies still spend more money on job boards instead of employee referral programs," states Ms. Phair. ReferAll's Minimum Viable Product (MVP) is currently being piloted to small / enterprise businesses as well as the federal/public sectors in the United States.
"I'm honored to participate in the Google Certificate Scholarship Program! My passion to create and implement workforce development programs/software, allows me the opportunity to assist those wanting to gain 21st Century Technological Skill Sets while empowering oneself with Personal Development goals of obtaining IT Digital Certifications, and for free! The Google+Coursera Digital Training and Certificates are courses in Data Analytics, Digital Marketing & E-Commerce, IT Automation with Python, IT Support, Project Management and UX Design," states Ms. Phair. "The Workforce Partnership initiatives goal is to provide opportunities of Empowerment, Self- Development for individuals to become a 'Super Champion'. I recall being told that I needed a 'Champion' – Someone to help open a door for me due to the fact that I didn't have the contacts of influence within my network at the time. A 'Champion' helps you get the interview thus the new job or promotion. A 'Champion' helps you 'close the deal'. A 'Champion' helps you get the funding you need for the project you're creating or better yet – writes the check. AWS will offer 1:1 Mentoring, Career Development and assist in Job Placement for recipients that sign up to become a 'Super Champion', as well as provide Customized Employee/Community Engagement Programs for Corporate Partnership. I WANT TO BE THAT 'CHAMPION' to someone and assist under-served and underemployed individuals in becoming their own 'Super Champion'," states Ms. Phair.
"The On It Foundation receives hundreds of requests for computers daily – validating the Digital Divide is ongoing. If there is one computer in the home, our research has found that the demographic impact reach includes all individuals in the home, possibly the neighbor and those coming to that home to use the computer. And with over 30% of our current workforce remote, and many educational institutions also offering remote learning; our organization have seen a tremendous reduction in donated computers we provide to our K-12 recipients," states Ms. Phair. "Being agile to pivot and find creative strategies to obtain donated computers systems, and provide 21st Century Skill Sets to our Communities, is our organization's strength," Ms. Phair noted.
Navigating through the challenges of securing donated computers, we have implemented the following new initiatives for those within the United States wanting to gain Next Generation Technology (NGT):
