The Maryland state Workforce Innovation and Opportunity Act (WIOA) workplan has been released. Maryland is combining its workforce efforts across multiple agencies (Governor’s Workforce Investment Board, the Department of Labor, Licensing and Regulation, the Department of Human Resources, and the Maryland State Department of Education) into one plan.
The state plan is a part of Maryland’s implementation of the federal Workforce Innovation and Opportunity Act, which was signed into law on July 22, 2014 and went into effect July 1, 2015. The state plan must be submitted to the federal government by March 3, 2016.
Tell the Maryland State Workforce Investment Board how the proposed plan could impact your community and/or your organization’s ability to deliver services. It’s important that the nonprofit voice is heard at the state level. Send all comments to DLWDALWIOA_DLLR@maryland.gov by Monday, Feb 1, 2016. Please let us knowif you send a comment.
