Title: Workforce Investment Act Amendments
|
|
Abstract: The Department of Labor is implementing several important policy changes to the Workforce Investment Act and Wagner-Peyser Act regulations. Changes in this rulemaking address long-standing issues such as the large size of State and Local Workforce Investment Boards; the sequence of core, intensive, and training services; the governor’s authority over eligible training providers; and the availability of Individual Training Accounts to youth. In addition, the changes address the method of delivery of Wagner-Peyser Act-funded services. Congress has included language in the Continuing Appropriations Resolution, 2007 (Pub. L. 110-5) and the Consolidated Appropriations Act, 2008 (Pub. L. 110-161), that prevents the Department from finalizing and implementing this proposed regulation.
