Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A competitive national economy depends, in part, on a workforce development system that provides individuals with labor market skills and gives employers access to qualified workers. In the past, the nation s job training system was fragmented, containing overlapping programs that did not serve job seekers or employers well. 1 To address these problems, the Congress passed the Workforce Investment Act (WIA) in 1998, seeking to create a system connecting employment, education, and training services to better match workers to labor market needs. WIA s requirements represented a significant change from prior workforce development efforts, including, among other things.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A competitive national economy depends on providing individuals with marketable skills and employers with access to qualified workers. In the past, the nation's job training system was fragmented and did not serve job seekers or employers well. The Workforce Investment Act in 1998 created a system that links employment, education, and training services to better match workers and labor market trends. The act represented a significant change from earlier workforce development efforts. Many of the act's provisions took effect in July 2000, and state and local organizations are at different stages of implementing them. Although the act's mandatory partners are making efforts to participate in the one-stops, programmatic or financial concerns are affecting the partners' level of participation as well as their ability to fully integrate their services at the one-stop. As implementation of the act progresses, training options for job seekers may be diminishing rather than improving, as trained providers reduce the number of courses offered to job seekers. Private-sector representatives may be discouraged from participating on workforce investment boards as a result of how states and localities are operating their boards and associated entities.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Directors of 505 local workforce investment boards (WIBs) nationwide were surveyed to understand implementation status, linkages with education, and factors affecting implementation of the Workforce Investment Act (WIA) of 1998. Findings indicated nearly all local WIBs established a youth council and a network of youth service providers; local boards found it challenging to get parents and youth to participate on youth councils; a number of local areas found it difficult to identify and select youth service providers through the competitive selection process because low numbers of providers responded to requests for proposals; educators participated on youth councils and delivered services but remained tentative partners; two factors facilitated implementation--experience in collaborative efforts among youth-serving agencies and placing priority on youth development; and legislative requirements (such as documenting income eligibility, meeting spending requirement for out-of-school youth, measuring performance indicators and setting performance goals, and meeting partnering requirements) impeded implementation progress or adversely affected service delivery. Appendixes include a comparison of key youth provisions under WIA and the Job Training Partnership Act and Department of Labor comments. (Contains 28 footnotes.) (YLB)
