2017 BUSINESS SUCCESS STORIES

Terranea Resort - Palos Verdes



Workforce History: Terranea Resort first opened its doors in 2009. Situated on
the Palos Verdes Peninsula, it is a 102-acre property with 582 guestrooms that
requires a large workforce to maintain the grounds and the guestrooms. 



Workforce Challenge: Terranea needed to fill various positions in their
housekeeping department including; house attendants, guestroom attendants,
stewards, turn down attendants and public 

area attendants.  They had previously utilized staffing agencies to fill their
permanent and temporary positions. With challenges of finding the right
individuals, they looked elsewhere and found partnership with the South Bay
One-Stop Business & Career Center – Torrance.

 

Outcomes & Benefits: The first collaborative recruitment event, held at the
South Bay One-Stop Business & Career Center – Torrance, attracted job seekers
living primarily in the South Bay.  Terranea was so pleased with the positive
recruitment and being able to utilize the One-Stop Center facility, that they
scheduled a second recruitment. Terranea was so satisfied with the result
they decided to work solely with the Torrance One-Stop Center staff. The
One-Stop continues to host pre-screenings for candidate referrals to Terranea
Resort’s housekeeping department along with pre-screenings for their technical
positions within the engineering department.

Workforce History: 

Since 1994, RWM has specialized in Fiber Optic, Network Cabling (UTP), Cable
Television, and Satellite Installation training. The mission of RWM Fiber Optics

is to empower a diverse student body by teaching academic concepts
and technological skills and by instilling in students the importance of
effective, responsible application of their knowledge to succeed in a highly
competitive, technologically changing world.



Workforce Challenge: RWM has been a valued i-TRAIN partner since 1994 and has
provided numerous training opportunities to adult, dislocated workers, and
Veteran clients.  A rapidly growing industry coupled with changes within the
vocational education industry led to immediate staffing needs in the areas of
administrative staff, admissions personnel, and instructors. 

 

Outcomes & Benefits: While the SBWIB and South Bay One-Stop Business and Career
Center - Inglewood have had a long standing relationship with RWM as a training
provider, the relationship has expanded to include employment opportunities for
SBWIB clients. Recently, the RWM has hired a total of 6 job seekers from various
programs including dislocated worker, adult, 25%, and Transitional Subsidized
Employment Program.

Workforce History:  Since 2002, Global Cardio Care, Inc. has managed physician
practices that deliver treatment to people in Southern California and across the
world.  With its headquarters in Inglewood, Global Cardio Care has opened its
doors to a community at risk for cardiovascular disease. The firm offers a place
for people to practice health and improve lifestyle with education, treatment,
lifestyle health coaching, and instant feedback about how to prevent and reverse
cardiovascular disease.



Workforce Challenge: As a growing healthcare facility, the immediate need for
Global Cardio Care was to find qualified candidates to fill various positions
including patient care, medical office, and patient transport positions.

 

Outcomes & Benefits: The SBWIB and South Bay One-Stop Business and Career
Center-Inglewood successfully developed and executed a fruitful partnership that
has resulted in multiple On-the-Job Training programs and subsequent placements
for WIOA Low Income clients in the area.  Additionally, Global Cardio Care has
