    Abstract:

    An overarching principle of WIOA is that various agencies will collaborate to meet the needs of adults seeking employment, job skills training, basic skills education, High School Equivalency exam preparation, and other services. The ultimate aim is for adults to become part of the workforce. The goal is for people to obtain the services they need in a seamless, not disjointed, process. For example, a worker at an American Job Center should be able to connect a learner with an adult education program, with a minimum of testing and duplication of intake.

    Abstract:

    It's been almost two years since the passage of WIOA July 22, 2014. With the July 1 implementation looming, how have your programs prepared? Education services are key activities outlined in WIOA to enable youth and adults to obtain essential skills for employment and further education. With an emphasis on collaboration with postsecondary education entities and the real engagement of employers, adult education practitioners are feeling the pressure to be ready to meet the expanded demands of the law, employers, and learners. Engage with your peers to learn more about assessing your program's next moves.
