Under Section 171 of WIA, the Secretary of Labor is required to submit, every two years, a plan that describes priorities for pilot, demonstration, multiservice, multistate, and research projects. The Research Plan provides ETA with an extensive literature review of prior research, a summary of current research, and an identification of research topics related to workforce development programs and policies that should be taken into consideration over the next five years, from 2010–2015. In addition to ETA-funded studies, this Research Plan includes a number of studies and research efforts funded by other public and private organizations, such as state and local agencies, other Federal agencies, foundations and other nonprofits, universities, and other stakeholders, to gain a better understanding of the gaps in employment and training research in order to identify high priority topics for research. The Research Plan is composed of five chapters: • Chapter I introduces the role of the plan in informing the decision-making process for carrying out research and evaluation. • Chapter II identifies significant recently completed research and SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: PO 00000 Frm 00107 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 66997 evaluation projects conducted in the years from 2005–2010. • Chapter III identifies current and ongoing research and evaluation efforts. • Chapter IV recommends five high priority topic areas for research. • Chapter V summarizes the role of the plan. In the development of the Research Plan, WIA calls for the consultation of interested parties to address national employment and training problems. With support from ETA, an extensive effort was made by the John J. Heldrich Center of Rutgers University to engage both internal and external stakeholders in the process of identifying research gaps and high priority topics for the public workforce system. The Heldrich Center produced a paper summarizing the findings from these efforts entitled Identifying Gaps and Setting Priorities for Employment and Training Research. This paper was a critical source for the Research Plan, and information from the paper was adopted as core parts of Chapters II, III, IV, and the appendices in the Research Plan. ETA is also accepting comments about the Research Plan in response to this notice. ETA will use this additional feedback to finalize the Research Plan before ultimately transmitting the plan to Congress. Signed at Washington, DC, this 17th day of October, 2011. Jane Oates, Assistant Secretary for Employment and Training.
