Who We Are

Iowa's Employers' councils are groups of employers who work in partnership with Iowa Workforce Development to meet the workforce needs of employers. They provide an employer perspective in advising IWD and other policy makers on the full range of workforce issues and topics of concern to employers. The special role of the state level Employers' Council is to help gather and disseminate information about the activities of local councils, and to represent the local councils at the state and federal levels.

Our Mission Statement
The mission of the Employers' Council of Iowa is to support the efforts of local employers committees to:
Advise Iowa Workforce Development, legislators, and other officials concerning its products, services, and policies that affect employers; and
Provide opportunities for employers to exchange information and develop education programs for employers.
