  • Durham's Northgate Mall New Home to Joblink Center
    Durham’s Northgate Mall New Home to JobLink Center Durham jobseekers now have another location to search for employment opportunities thanks to the opening of a new Durham JobLink Career Center at Northgate Mall. The new center is located inside Northgate Mall in Suite 848. It is open Monday, Tuesday, Thursday and Friday from 8:30 a.m. to 5 p.m. On Wednesday, the center is open from 8:30 a.m. to 7 p.m. Nicholas McCoy, senior workforce development manager with the City’s Office of Economic and Workforce Development, said the increasing demand of jobseekers searching for employment in the past couple of years illustrated the need for another permanent location for JobLink. Since July 2009, JobLink has been using Northgate Mall as one of its mobile unit locations to help alleviate the long lines at the 1105 S. Briggs Ave. site. Given the response rate the mobile unit was seeing at the Northgate location, the Durham Workforce Development Board approved establishing a permanent JobLink location inside the mall. The JobLink at Northgate will offer a full array of employment services such as job referrals, job search assistance and online application submittal. This new center also provides express referral service Mondays through Wednesdays from 8:30 a.m. to 11:30 a.m. If applicants are not currently registered with Durham JobLink, they should come prepared to receive service after completing the registration process. The center will also allow businesses to hold recruitment events, interview prospective jobseekers, and receive expedited referrals for posted jobs. Besides the 1105 S.

  • Congratulations, Ms. Tedeschi!
    Magazine AUGUST 2020 PAGE 10 Congratulations, Ms. Tedeschi! INSIDE: 2 4 7 15 TDS Pivots to 8th Grade Graduation TDS Hires First Lower Annual Report Distance Learning Moves Online School Director and Outside Dear TDS Families and Friends, On March 5th, Mr. Dowd and a handful of faculty led a group of TDS families on a Spring Break trip to South America. Some were nervous, but things seemed reasonably under control. One week later, that crew was one of the last to land at RDU before most of the region effectively shut down. Things happened quickly that week, yet the pace of change has increased exponentially since then. I’ve waited as long as possible to write this letter, knowing that much of it could be obsolete by the time this magazine lands in your mailbox. Amidst all the change and uncertainty, here’s what I can definitively share. First, while COVID threw us quite a curveball last spring, it did not derail a successful year at TDS. Thanks to the efforts of our teachers, parents, and students, TDS persevered, learning continued, and we found novel ways to create community. Second, this has been the busiest summer in the history of TDS. Teachers have completed courses and begun to plan for in-person, off-campus, and distance learning. On campus, we have reconfigured classrooms, knocked down walls, installed air purifiers, built outdoor classrooms, and redesigned how we do just about everything. Finally, while I cannot predict what might happen next, I do know that we at TDS will continue to be guided by our mission and core values.
