I'm a math ed grad student who knows work force development is a big part of community colleges, but I'm not sure what exactly is covered under it, if different colleges call it different things, or if it is an official name of an official category in some way.

Well work force is mainly office jobs. It teaches you the basis of working in an office.
Classes usually include quick books, excel, word, power point, and so on.
I believe other schools call it the same thing.
Hope this was helpful to you.

Teaching skills (math and reading, science) to adults who already have jobs but need further skill improvement to attain higher skill positions. My company uses standardized testing to determine suitable for production and technical jobs. If your scores are low for a job you want to bid, you must retest above the minimum to bid. This also ensures a basic technical sompetency for the folks that run our multi-million dollar machines.

I believe it refers to the CC two year degree programs that train for specific job catagories, such as dental hygeine, paralegal, etc. It is one of their missions and the main reason they receive state aid.
