Current Narrative:
MVR reviewed the requirements for the performance accountability indicators under section 116 of WIOA when goals and priorities were in development. Available data was taken into consideration. MVR is collecting and reporting data for the first five performance accountability indicators, which will be negotiated. The departments are piloting approaches for measuring the sixth indicator, Effectiveness in Serving Employers. For the PY 2020 – 2023 state plan, VR agencies were required to only report an expected level of performance for measurable skill gains (MSG). MVR negotiated 20% as its level of performance for this measure. MVR exceeded its negotiated level of performance with 43.7% for PY 2019 and 78% for PY 2020. Baseline data was allowed for indicators one through four.
MVR collaborated with its core partners to determine a performance indicator for Effectiveness in Serving Employers. Missouri chose Repeat Business Customers and Employer Penetration Rate as its measure of performance. The core partners continue data collection for this indicator.
