Data Collection OVERVIEW
Skyland Workforce Center consists of a group of DC nonprofit organizations that work together to help DC residents to acquire skills, obtain and retain employment, and improve their quality of life. Skyland manages a shared database system that can only be accessed by partner agencies. The shared database system enables partner organizations to, among other things:
- Serve DC adults more effectively and efficiently by facilitating collaboration between partner agencies with the goal of helping DC adults acquire job skills and education.
- Coordinate and integrate services in a manner that will help participants increase their likelihood of achieving goals and success.
- Help facilitate participant referrals between CIP partner organizations.
- Reduce the amount of time a participant spends completing intake forms and repeating similar information from one organization to the next.
The collaborative has a standard intake form that is used by all partner organizations to collect basic information about you. This basic information will be shared via the database with Skyland partner organizations. Partners will use the shared data to help coordinate the programs and services you need to succeed. In addition, each partner organization may collect additional information from you that will not be shared with other agencies, such as sensitive health information or case management notes. Neither Skyland nor partners will share any information you give to us with non-Skyland/CIP partner organizations without your explicit permission.
