In February, we shared information on efforts to reauthorize the Workforce Investment Act. Recently, the Senate Committee on Health, Education, Labor & Pensions (HELP) released a discussion draft of that legislation and was scheduled to hold a hearing to “mark up” the proposed legislation on June 29. That mark-up hearing has now been postponed until Wednesday July 20. We will keep you apprised of new developments and welcome your thoughts and reaction to the discussion draft. The legislation covers:
Title I: To support a comprehensive and coordinated workforce development system, Title I of the Workforce Investment Act of 2011 streamlines governance provisions such as boards and plans and establishes common performance indicators across the four core WIA programs.
Title II: One stop delivery system, job training formula programs, and national programs.
Title III: Adult Education
Title IV: Amendments to the Wagner-Peyser Act
Title V: Amendments to the Rehabilitation Act
Title VI: General Provisions
