This session on Customer Centered Design is the third webinar in the Act Now Series, hosted by the Employment and Training Administration (ETA), to inspire innovation at the local and state level in achieving customer centered design as part of implementing the Workforce Innovation and Opportunity Act (WIOA).

In partnership with the U.S. Department of Labor, the U.S. Department of Education, and the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, we are hosting a webinar on Customer Centered Design. Design Thinking is a practical, repeatable approach to arriving at innovative solutions. Think of these Methods as a step-by-step guide to unleashing your creativity, putting the people you serve at the center of your design process to come up with new answers to difficult problems. This webinar will include an overview of what Customer Centered Design is, examples from peers about how it is currently being used in the workforce and human services systems, and how other federal agencies are using Design Thinking to innovate services to customers.

This webinar is the launch of a bigger initiative designed to engage workforce leadership throughout the country in a three month process. Through your participation in this webinar, you will learn how you can address design challenges below. You will also learn how you and your partners can engage in a team to learn, practice, and implement customer-centered design.

  • How might we improve the customer experience and outcomes for our shared One-Stop Customers?
  • How might we put employers in the center of our sector strategies and career pathway work?

How might we design services and programs for out of school youth that will engage them and produce great outcomes?
