"Who Will Be First Hired and Last Fired" focuses on how EFF ensures that the people referred to job openings are equipped with the skills, knowledge, and abilities needed in the 21st century workplace. "New Jersey Uses EFF to Structure Its Workforce Development System" describes how New Jersey is using EFF to craft a common vision and common set of results for the state's workforce development system. "Combining Work and Education" shows how EFF is helping Canton City Schools, Ohio, prepare mothers on welfare to make the transition to the workforce for the first time. "From Role Map to Standards to Performance Assessment" describes the worker role map. "Linking to Private Sector Partners: EFF and Retail Sales" reports how business organizations like the National Retail Federation use EFF to prepare prospective retail workers to meet customer service standards developed by the Sales and Service Voluntary Partnership.
