HD11 - Implementation of the Workforce Investment Act in Virginia


    Executive Summary:
    House Joint Resolution 688 (2013) directs JLARC to update its 2003 report on the Commonwealth’s implementation of the Workforce Investment Act. The 2003 JLARC report found that Virginia lacked a coordinated system of workforce training. The mandate specifically directs JLARC to (1) examine the transparency of funding for workforce training and development programs, and (2) recommend ways to ensure that state agencies with funding oversight responsibilities are provided with information on program spending and outcomes.

    JLARC staff will complete this study in 2014 and submit a report on the study's findings to the General Assembly and the Governor and to DLAS as a House document before the first day of the Regular Session of 2015.
