• WORKFORCE DEVELOPMENT BEST PRACTICES IDENTIFICATION, COMMUNICATION AND TRAINING - THIS MULTI-YEAR PROJECT SEEKS TO IDENTIFY SUCCESSFUL STRATEGIES USED TO HIRE, DEVELOP AND RETAIN EMPLOYEES IN SHEET METAL, HVAC, AND MECHANICAL CONSTRUCTION COMPANIES. IN THE FIRST PHASE OF THIS PROJECT, WHICH WAS INITIATED IN DECEMBER 2022, THE NEW HORIZONS FOUNDATION INVESTIGATED AND REPORTED ON THE FOLLOWING CURRENT ISSUES IN WORKFORCE DEVELOPMENT. 1.

THE NHF IDENTIFIED, MET WITH AND PROFILED 28 WORKFORCE DEVELOPMENT ORGANIZATIONS (WDOS) TO UNDERSTAND THEIR OBJECTIVES, CONTENT, DELIVERY METHODS, HISTORY AND RESULTS, ESPECIALLY AS THEY IMPACT THE ABOVE ISSUES. IN THE CURRENT SECOND PHASE OF THIS PROJECT, THE FOUNDATION IS HIGHLIGHTING THE TOP 25% OF WDOS THROUGH FACILITATED PODCASTS. TWO OF THE SEVEN RECORDINGS HAVE BEEN COMPLETED AND ARE BEING EDITED FOR RELEASE IN JULY. THE REMAINING FIVE PODCASTS ARE SCHEDULED FOR COMPLETION BY THE 3RD QUARTER 2024. THESE WDOS FOCUS ON BRINGING UNDER-REPRESENTED GROUPS (WOMEN AND MINORITIES) INTO BUILDING TRADES AND THEIR SUCCESSES (AND STRUGGLES) ARE FEATURED IN THE PODCASTS. A THIRD PROJECT PHASE IS UNDERWAY WITH THE FOLLOWING OBJECTIVES IDENTIFIED. 1. CURATE THE CAPTURED WDOS CONTENT INTO CONCISE INFOGRAPHICS. 2. FOCUS ON LEADERSHIP DEVELOPMENT FOR TRADE AND NON-TRADE HIRES AND PRODUCE SHORT VIDEOS TO SHOWCASE SUCCESSFUL PRACTICES (MENTORING, SHADOWING, AND ONBOARDING). 3. DEVELOP A ROADMAP/TEMPLATE FOR IMPLEMENTATION BY CONTRACTORS AND LOCAL ASSOCIATIONS (SMACNA CHAPTERS). 4. CONTINUE INDUSTRY PRESENTATIONS ON PROJECT FINDINGS AND CONTINUE TO EXPAND SUCCESSFUL WDO CONTACTS AND RELATIONSHIPS. 5. DEVELOP A WDO MEDIA SITE ON THE NHF WEBSITE AND CONTINUE WORK TO IMPROVE THE SEARCH ENGINE PRESENCE AND FUNCTIONALITY OF THE NHF WEBSITE, PARTICULARLY AS IT RELATES TO WORKFORCE DEVELOPMENT ISSUES AND INTERESTS.

As filed on the 2023 return. The filer continues this part on Schedule O, which is not shown here. A text marked withheld matched a screen for wording that may name a private individual, such as an honorific or "in memory of". Most of what it withholds names no one; it is withheld so that what does is never shown.

Listed in Part VII

Compensation is as filed in Part VII: reportable pay from this organization and from related organizations, other compensation, and hours per week. The total, marked calculated, is our sum of the three dollar columns, with a blank column counted as $0; the form itself has no total. On a Form 990-EZ the columns are Part IV's instead, and on a Form 990-PF Part VIII's — compensation, contributions to benefit plans, and expense account — and the total sums those. A Schedule J breakdown is as filed: base pay, bonus, other, deferred compensation and nontaxable benefits from this organization, with any from related organizations beside each, and the filer's own total. It is shown with the Part VII listing of the same name on the same return. The form gives no key between the two, so that pairing is ours, and is marked matched by us.

Schedule J

Part I's answers as filed. A line not listed was left unanswered; on lines 1a and 3 that means the box was not checked.
