This dashboard captures the occupational supply and demand for the 15 Virginia Workforce Development Areas. The demand data come from Burning Glass Technologies. They have a unique “spidering” technology that captures more than 90 percent of all job postings from the internet – from job posting sites such as Monster.com, as well as the postings that businesses post on their own websites. They also disaggregate the number of job postings by detailed occupation, in order to determine which occupations are in high demand – and vise-versa.This interactive model enables users to:

• Select which area / region they are interested in (or all of them)
• Select clusters of occupations – by level of study – and drill down to more specific occupations within each cluster. For each, the top skills and certifications requested by employers will be displayed.
• View institutions and workforce credential grant program offerings by region and career area.
• Download the images and tables from the model.
