Breakfast to focus on DeKalb business development

DeKalb Workforce Development will host a breakfast Tuesday to highlight and explain new initiatives to spur hiring and worker retention.

DeKalb recently launched three separate programs, using federal funds, to subsidize training for new and existing workers and a program to find qualified candidates for open jobs.

The breakfast will go into detail on the efforts. It begins at 9 a.m. at the workforce offices, 774 Jordan Lane, building 4, near Decatur.
