The Unified or Combined State Plan must include the following with respect to activities carried out under subtitle B—
a. 2. A. Provide State policies or guidance for the statewide workforce development system and for use of State funds for workforce investment activities
Current Narrative:
Washington is in the process of developing state WIOA Title I Policy 5617 (Use of Governor’s Discretionary Funds for WIOA Title I Statewide Activities), which articulates the process for identifying, assessing and securing the Governor’s approval for use of the WIOA 10% discretionary set-aside funding. Until such time as that policy is issued, the current approach allows the Governor unilateral decision-making authority over state funds for workforce investment activities, though the Governor’s senior policy advisor for workforce issues does solicit proposals from workforce development stakeholders.
