From Oregonlive.com, "WorkSource Portland Metro Hillsboro moves to Willow Creek Center"
PORTLAND -- On Monday, Nov. 23, the Hillsboro office of WorkSource Portland Metro will officially open its doors at Portland Community College's newly complete Willow Creek Center in Washington County.
The new facility serves residents of Beaverton and Hillsboro.
Like other WorkSource Centers, it will offer computer literacy and workplace English classes, numerous workshops including resume writing, interviewing, and job search assistance. Additionally there is a resource room with 40 computer workstations to provide customers access to job listings. The center is on the MAX Blueline and is served by TriMet's 47, 48, 52 and 88 bus routes. Ample parking is also available.
"A year ago the Oregon Employment Department and Worksystems consolidated job training and employment services at each WorkSource Portland Metro Center location to enhance services to customers in our region, particularly during a time of high unemployment," Said Andrew McGough, Worksystems executive directo. "Locating at the Willow Creek Center allows us to use additional training facilities at the college to maximize the number of classes we can provide and exposes customers to other programs offered at PCC."
WorkSource Portland Metro Beaverton/Hillsboro manager, Ken Dodge underscored that.
"We have simply outgrown our current location," Dodge said. "This larger, state-of-the-art facility will greatly increase the number of customers we can serve."
Friday, Nov. 20, is the last day services will be offered at the WorkSource center on Oak Street.
