NoRTEC realizes that in order to achieve our mission, we have to look beyond our 11-county region. While our focus remains on workforce development in Northern California, our region will inevitably be impacted by state and national trends. NoRTEC actively participates in and contributes to state and national programs, organizations and initiatives.
