stated below, in order to meet the unique regional training needs within the new Colorado
One-Stop Career Center system.
WHEREAS, authority exists in the Law and funds have been budgeted, appropriated or
otherwise made available, and a sufficient unencumbered balance thereof remains
available for payment through a federal grant to implement a One-Stop Career Center
system in Colorado (the One-Stop grant, number 1520); and
WHEREAS, an assessment was conducted by the Colorado Community College and
Occupational Education System in the spring of 1997 and 1998 to determine the staff
training needs of the eighteen One-Stop implementation regions; and
WHEREAS, based on the results of the training needs assessment conducted in 1997 and
1998, the Council agreed to obligate funds from the One-Stop implementation grant to
establish lines-of-credit for workforce development regions wishing to upgrade the skills
of their One-Stop staff; and
WHEREAS, it is in the interest of the state to assure that staff members of the One-Stop
Career Centers receive the training necessary to effectively meet the needs of local job-
seekers and employers within the new One-Stop Career Center system.
NOW THEREFORE, it is hereby agreed that:
1. The Commissioners shall receive a $7,000 line-of-credit (or $7,000 minus the actual
expenses incurred to date) to be used to upgrade the skills of its One-Stop Career
Center personnel. Any costs incurred over $7,000 will be the responsibility of the
workforce development region.
9
2. A line-of-credit application must be submitted and approved by the Training
Committee and the Council before any funds may be released. (Please see attached

actual costs incurred, and within the budget previously approved by the Training
Committee and the Council.
4. An evaluation of the effectiveness of the training must be submitted to the Training
Committee at the conclusion of the training session. The Training Committee will
review the evaluation results and provide a summary to the Council.
5. Payment under this agreement is contingent on the availability of federal funds. If
such funding is no longer available to the Council, payment will not be available
under this Agreement and services will be terminated.
6. This Agreement may be terminated by the mutual agreement of all parties.

Line-of-Credit Training
The One-Stop Training Committee has recommended that each workforce development
region in Colorado have access to a "line-of-credit" to meet unique regional training
priorities in implementing the One-Stop Career Center system. To meet this need, the
Workforce Coordinating Council has agreed to obligate funds from the training budget to
establish a line-of-credit for each implementation region. Regions will have access to a
$7,000 line-of-credit once the implementation application has been approved and a
Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) has been signed with the state for One-Stop
implementation funds.
To access line-of-credit funds, the One-Stop director must fill out and submit the attached
form (for each training request) to the Training Committee, in care of the Colorado
Community College & Occupational Education System. Proposed training must be
designed for One-Stop staff and management.
Within 72 hours of receipt of the line-of-credit request, the Training Committee will
review the training request, recommend approval or denial, and forward the request and
its recommendations to the Workforce Coordinating Council. The executive director of
the Workforce Coordinating Council will make the final decision regarding approval of
the line-of-credit request, based on the Training Committee's recommendation. The
region will be responsible for evaluating the effectiveness of the training at the
conclusion of the session and providing written comment to the Training Committee.
The Training Committee will review the evaluation results from each training and will
provide a summary to the Workforce Coordinating Council.
Please submit the training request (via mail or fax) to the attention of the capacity
building coordinator:
