What this bill does

Plain-language analysis by the nonpartisan Legislative Reference Bureau

This bill requires any state agency or authority that operates, coordinates, or

oversees a workforce development program or activity, as defined in the bill, to track

and report, at least annually, on the performance of that workforce development

program or activity, using the primary indicators of performance under the federal

Workforce Innovation and Opportunity Act. These performance indicators are: 1)

the percentage of program participants who are in unsubsidized employment during

the second quarter after exit from the program; 2) the percentage of program

participants who are in unsubsidized employment during the fourth quarter after

exit from the program; 3) the median earnings of program participants who are in

unsubsidized employment during the second quarter after exit from the program; 4)

the percentage of program participants who obtain a recognized postsecondary

credential, or a secondary school diploma or its recognized equivalent during

participation in or within one year after exit from the program; 5) the percentage of

program participants who, during a program year, are in an education or training

program that leads to a recognized postsecondary credential or employment and who

are achieving measurable skill gains toward such a credential or employment; and

6) the indicators of effectiveness in serving employers.
