Description: ETA, in its role of
providing broad program oversight and
policy development, needs accurate,
timely information on how services and
systems under WIA are unfolding and
on the challenges and successes states
and local areas encounter. Only in this
way can it properly discharge its
obligations to issue policy clarifications,
regulations and technical assistance.
This need is particularly acute given
that the workforce development system
has been evolving rapidly in the several
years since WIA was enacted. It is
expected that WIA will continue to
change rapidly, as Congress is currently
considering its reauthorization, with
multiple potential changes. However,
much of the information available to
ETA on key operational issues is
impressionistic or anecdotal in nature,
based on hearsay or unsystematic
observations, and not accurate as to the
incidence or scope nationally. When
accurate nationwide information is
available, as from long-term in-depth
evaluation studies, it is often not timely.
Thus ETA has a need for accurate and
timely information that can be found
only with systematic quick turnaround
studies. For additional information, see
related notice published in the Federal
Register on March 30, 2010, (Vol. 75
page 15726).
