RECOMMENDATION(S):
APPROVE and AUTHORIZE the Employment and Human Services Director, or designee, to process payments related to mandatory training requirements set forth by the Workforce Innovation and Opportunity Act (WIOA) legislation.

It also includes the ability to execute contracts with local employers to allow for partial reimbursement of expenses employers incur to hire and provide on-the-job training (OJT) to participants for July 1, 2019 through June 30, 2020
FISCAL IMPACT:
This will increase the Department's budget expenditures by $425,000, entirely funded by WIOA revenues.
