- W2416449341 abstract "How Industry Sector Initiatives And Career Pathways Will Create Alignment Between Education And Economic Development Goals.The Workforce Innovation and Opportunity Act (WIOA) was passed by the United States Congress on July 22, 2014, with overwhelming bipartisan support and will be enacted on July 1, 2015, replacing the Workforce Investment Act (WIA) of 1998. WIOA includes some very progressive language related to how career services activities should be carried out in the public sector in the future. It establishes that:Research and information is provided to job seekers by industry sectorThere be active engagement with employersClear career pathways for job seekers and employees is providedAll job seekers be followed after receiving services to determine if they are benefitting from the career services providedThe public workforce system is to consider the needs of employers and job seekers in the wider region rather than only what falls within their political linesMore opportunities are to be provided for learning on the job (such as apprenticeships and on the job training opportunities)Barriers to employment opportunities are to be addressed (transportation, child care, etc.)This article will examine the first two of these from the list:That research and information provided to job seekers by industry sectorThat there be active engagement with employers and touch lightly on the importance of creating clear career pathways for job seekers and employees. These new strategies in the public workforce system stand at the vanguard of positively impacting employer's ability to improve the quality of their workforce...both incoming workers (job seekers) and incumbent workers as well.A brief historyThe public workforce system has a 100+ year old history of providing job matching services and training services to those who are unemployed and under-employed. The emphasis of this public system had always been on improving the skills of the jobseeker, but a new emphasis under the Workforce Investment Act of 1998 (WIA) was not on training but on helping people get a job first, with training being seen as a last-ditch effort to get the person employed. While it seemed like a good idea at the time, this philosophy of work first over time, lead to a lower skilled workforce at a time when more and more technical skills were required in all industries around the globe. The work-first philosophy under WIA was especially damaging to low-skilled, low-income, and youth populations who were largely dumped into service industry jobs with little career growth opportunities. For those who were not able to find a job with the skills they had, the workforce system did provide a small amount of money (usually three or four thousand dollars) to a few people who qualified for this grant called an individualized training account (ITA). Under previous workforce development legislation, when a jobseeker received training assistance, it was up to the jobseeker to determine what they might want to seek. However, under WIA, jobseekers with ITA's may only pursue employment that is in high growth/high demand occupations in their region.This requirement for jobseekers to train in high growth/high demand occupations is referred to as the demand driven workforce in which jobseekers desires for training are weighed against the needs of employers for those skills in the local marketplace. The concept of local employment needs driving training decisions gained additional traction with the advent of the Federal Department of Labor Workforce Innovation in Regional Economic Development (WIRED) grants initiatives in 2006. The WIRED grants were high dollar competitive grants offered by the Department of Labor Employment and Training Administration that pushed forward this idea of a demand driven workforce by making these investments in regions that required the collaboration of economic development labor market information input into the plans being made to carry out the grants. …" @default.
