Current Narrative:

The MACC is WorkForce West Virginia’s management information system that covers all US DOL programs that we manage, except for the Unemployment Compensation systems where an interface allows for the immediate transfer of registration data from the UC benefits payment system to the MACC. Going forward, all partners will add interfaces to their information system that will allow the real time exchange of participant tracking information among all systems partners will meet monthly to build the interface. Once those interfaces are established, the system will allow case managers to streamline the intake process by eliminating the need to duplicate data that is already available in the partner systems. It will also allow the tracking of an individual’s participation in all programs, including what services have been given or are scheduled to be given, individual development plans, outcomes, and other pertinent information.
