b. 1. If the State is Utilizing Work-based Training Models (e.g. On-the- Job Training, Incumbent Worker Training, Transitional Jobs, and Customized Training) as Part of Its Training Strategy and These Strategies Are Not Already Discussed in Other Sections of the Plan, Describe the State’s Strategies for How These Models Ensure High Quality Training for Both the Participant and the Employer.

Current Narrative:

Through the use of work-based training models, training objectives will be aligned with employer goals in such a way that when the participant meets objectives, they will also be meeting the employer goals. This process will begin with new employee orientation training where participants will learn workplace ethics and acquire soft skills training. While doing work-based training, participants will be introduced to new production models and technologies. The state will also strengthen partnerships with Registered Apprenticeship systems to help jobseekers immediately start working and increase their work literacy and earnings.
