The Workforce Innovation and Opportunity Act (WIOA) creates new opportunities for partnership across multiple programs to better serve job seekers and employers through American Job Centers. But what makes a partnership great and what should it look like under WIOA? Get an overview of guidance in this area, including portions of recently-released Training and Employment Guidance Letter No. 16-16, One-Stop Operations Guidance for the American Job Center Network.
Description

Participate in an interactive video panel session featuring local areas that have made great strides in aligning resources to accomplish great things for jobseekers and businesses, and actively participate by asking questions and responding to polls throughout the webinar to ensure your greatest concerns are addressed.
