Current Narrative:

West Virginia has an integrated data collection and performance management system (MACC) that covers the following programs:

• WIOA Adult, Dislocated Workers, Youth

• National Dislocated Worker Grants

• Migrant and Seasonal Farmworkers

• Wagner–Peyser

• Trade Adjustment Assistance

• Jobs for Veterans State Grants

• West Virginia’s Unemployment Compensation MIS interfaces with MACC.

All other partners have management information systems that are customi zed to meet the needs of their programs. WorkForce West Virginia, Rehabilitation Services, and Adult Education will each make the necessary changes to their systems to collect the required data elements.

Initially, common data elements will be shared among the partners through a regular file exchange; ultimately linkages will be put in place to allow partners to access the information in real time. Employment and wage data will be shared with partners to the extent allowed by the WRIS/WRIS2 agreement.

To ensure alignment and integration, all WIOA core programs have mutual memorandums of understanding that help facilitate an integrated service delivery system. Staff members of each core partner will be cross–trained and knowledgeable about each core program in order to make appropriate customer referrals. The WIOA core partners will continue to maintain communication at the state and local levels on a regular basis. Common customer information and service provision data will be collected and stored in a data warehouse. This information will be shared among the partners in order to provide better and more efficient services to individuals enrolled in one or more programs and to employers served by the system.
