A • coordination agreement has been entered into with the Educational Opportunity Center (EOC), through Colorado State University. The EOC is provided space at Employment Services and EDWAA staff work with the EOC staff to offer specialized career exploration, and to facilitate the referral to and the provision of educational training opportunities.

Labor market information will be provided to individuals for determination of expanding or growing occupational areas. Individuals will also be made aware of programs offered in contiguous counties which may be appropriate for their need. Customer satisfaction will be monitored and evaluated in a number of ways. Weld County will utilize a follow-up questionnaire for participants which will be modeled after the OMNI follow-up format. Participants will be surveyed during the third month of training, upon exiting the EDWAA program, the fourth week after termination, and again at the twelfth week after termination. This survey includes questions regarding the individuals rating of occupational testing,job counseling, re-training services, OJT,job placement services, and the program as a whole. Information obtained from these surveys will be utilized to improve program design as well as to provide information to individuals regarding the success of program options. 2. Basic readjustment services are provided on a continuing basis for as long as they are needed. As an example, assessment is an ongoing process. Although the IRP is completed prior to the delivery of services, it is updated on an as needed basis. Basic readjustment services offered to a participant to assist them in securing employment are; development of individual readjustment plans, outreach and intake, orientations to program services, early readjustment assistance,job or career counseling activities, testing, assessment including educational attainment and participant interests and aptitudes, determination of occupational skills,job placement assistance, labor market information,job clubs,job search assistance,. self directed job search,job development, supportive services, pre-layoff assistance, limited relocation assistance, and early intervention activities.

Relocation assistance will be provided on a limited basis for those individuals who need such assistance to be able to except suitable employment. 15 9'90673 3. Specific occupational areas for training have not been pre-determined. Labor market conditions and information are given careful consideration at the time a participant's plan is developed which includes need/interest in a specific occupational area as well as appropriateness for training. Sources used to make this determination include the Occupational Supply/Demand Report, local labor market data obtained through the Job Service operated by Employment Services, and individual research completed by the participant. Individuals are appraised of the most current labor market information throughout their participation in the program by utilizing the Job Match system and through updates of the Supply/Demand Report. All participants are assessed through Employment Services' objective assessment process utilizing the Weld County objective assessment form. This assessment includes the capabilities, needs, and vocational potential and goals of the participant. This assessment is initiated prior to the development of the Individual Reemployment Plan(IRP) to determine all of the individual's employment and training needs, and continues throughout the development of the IRP. Initial assessments for all applicants include testing for reading and math levels utilizing the TABE, and a determination of need/benefit of the individual. A comparison is made between the individual's assessment results, the desired training, current labor market data regarding the availability of jobs in that field, and the individual's research regarding employment in the selected field, including work requirements and conditions. Determination regarding retraining services are established on a case by case basis and • depend upon the participant's education, previous training, skills acquired through past employment, and experience. Information from these areas are assessed as to how they apply to the participant's stated employment goal and a determination is made regarding the individual's need and interest in retraining. Generally, individuals who can obtain suitable long term employment without retraining will be limited to basic readjustment services. Individuals requesting retraining services will be required to complete an education assistance application for retraining services. 4. The determination of the need for training is made on an individual basis. The assessmentllRP process will determine the need and feasibility of retraining. If retraining is part of the plan, the participant will be encouraged to apply for a Pell Grant or other federal financial aid. If other financial aid is awarded, the plan will be reviewed to assure that no duplication of funding is provided. Individuals determined in need of retraining services are required to complete an education assistance application prior to placement in a retraining activity. This application includes letters of recommendation, name of school planning to attend, area of retraining, estimated graduation date, employment goal, previous vocational schooling, labor market research, outline for training program, estimated costs, current personal budget, and list of financial aide applied for and awarded. The individual is also required to contact potential employers to determine demand in the chosen filed and to acquire information regarding wage, work hours, experience or education required, and benefits available. 9' 0673 16 5. Actual training hours for participants are tracked and recorded based on client attestation and/or time sheets from the training activity site. Weld County uses the following process to aid in this tracking: At the beginning of the training. the case manager determines the schedule for attending the training activity. (ie., if the class meets two times per week, for three hours per day, and the participant is scheduled for 24 weeks, the case manager will now 144 training hours). At the end of the activity, the case manager asks the participant how many hours were attended and the number of actual participation hours are then determined for that activity. If the competency level or required training is not attained, then the same process will follow and the total hours will be adjusted. At the end of the activity, the case manager totals all hours and enters the actual hours into the record. OJT's will be tracked through the employer reimbursement forms. 6. The classroom training cost is an average amount. Approval must be obtained from the SSG Director for costs which exceed $2,500. Decisions are based on the type of training, length of training time, and other related factors. This process also applies to each new term and in addition, factors such as continued availability of funding and the participant's progress in training are evaluated. 7. Weld County assures that it follows § 627.220 and Colorado PGL #93-13-P1. The process and policy are described in Weld County's PY98-99 JTP. The Weld County SSG's Student Financial Aid Policy requires that participants apply for Pell Grants. If a participant is eligible for a Pell Grant. or any other financial assistance under Title IV of the Higher Education Act, the amount of the assistance awarded is considered when determining the individual's overall financial need. EDWAA supplements, rather than supplants Pell and other student financial aid resources. To ensure that there is no duplication of funding, and to avoid double billing for educational costs, the SSG case manager will send a letter to the instructional institution describing the costs (tuition, fees, books, and supplies) that EDWAA will pay for the client. The client will use the Pell grant or other financial assistance to pay for other costs associated with attending school. 8. In the event that entrepreneurial training is appropriate for the individual participant, only the cost of tuition, books, and fees will be provided. 9. Weld County assures that it follows § 627.240 of the JTPA regulations and that the process and policy for OJT are part of its PY98-99 JTP. The Weld County SSG developed an extensive OJT policy in PY92 and updated this policy in PY93. This policy covers areas which include the duration of the OJT's, formulas for length of training, training plans, etc. The policy addresses the procedures for working with temporary agencies. The participants IRP and prior work experience will also be used in the determination of length of training. 17 44-'0673 10. Out-of-area job search reimbursement may be provided based on information gathered through the objective assessment and Individual Reemployment Plan. Reimbursement will be allowed for non-Trade Adjustment Assistance Act (TAA) participants. Mileage will be reimbursed at $.27 per mile. Other actual and necessary expenses will be reimbursed upon the submission of receipts and the determination of appropriateness by the case manager. Minimal relocation services will be made available to dislocated workers who are relocating due to obtaining employment. 11. Weld County does not intend to use Needs Related Payments. Employment Services has developed flexible program services and activities to meet local needs. In the event that resources are not adequate to meet the needs identified through Rapid Response,a modification of the current proposal will occur or additional state assistance will be requested. 12. Supportive services will be made available to participants on an individual basis as appropriate based on needs identified through the objective assessment and Individual Reemployment Plan. An on-going goal of Employment Services is to continue to identify all the services available in Weld County, identify any service gaps, and determine a plan of action for connecting clients with the necessary services. There are a number of agencies in Weld County that provide supportive services. Employment Services will refer EDWAA clients to the appropriate available services. Mileage reimbursements, not to exceed fifty dollars ($50.00) per month, may be allowed to a classroom training participant based on the need identified in the Individual Reemployment Plan. Other supportive services which are directly related to the obtainment or retainment in employment, including, but not limited to, clothing and tools, may be allowed at the discretion of the case manager.

The assessment is client centered, and includes the evaluation of the participant's employment barriers, taking into consideration the participant's family situation, work history, education, occupational skills, interests, aptitudes (including interests and aptitudes for non-traditional occupations), attitude towards work, motivation, behavior patterns affecting potential employment, financial resources and needs, need for referral to other community agencies, supportive service needs and personal employment information as it relates to the local labor market. Information obtained from the assessment is used to develop the IRP. Assessment is an ongoing process which changes according to what is occurring in a participant's life, work or training situation. The case manager updates the IRP based on the ongoing assessment as needed, or implements additional formal assessments as necessary. If indicated in the objective assessment process as a needed service, individuals will be further assessed through additional formal assessments. Examples of other formal assessment tests include the Vocational Preference Inventory (VPI), the Kuder Occupational Inventory, GATB Occupational Inventory, and The Adult Basic Education (TABE) assessment for reading, language, and math levels. 4. The TABE Test is primarily used to determine math and reading levels. This test is provided at intake. 5. The Individual Reemployment Plan is prepared jointly by the client and the case manager and contains the plan to achieve unsubsidized employment as well as an assessment of the obstacles (barriers) to employment. Each activity to overcome identified obstacles are described, the responsibilities of the participant and agency are identified. and time frames are established. The participant signs and receives a copy of the initial IRP. Any changes to the plan generate a revised IRP which the client also signs and receives a copy.

One-Stop Employment Service - Weld County has implemented its One Stop Center System. A copy of Weld County's implementation plan is located as Attachment 18. A. This area is addressed in Attachment 18 beginning on page 1. B. This area is covered in Attachment 18 beginning on page 3. Reportable services for Wagner- Peyser include labor market information, federal and state job listings. veteran information on VA benefits, information on employment and training programs, referrals for supportive services, and many of the other defined core services. C. Employment Services of Weld County has addressed a General Business Development Strategy (Attachment 18) in its implementation plan to increase services and an awareness in the community of its One Stop Center. The data entry for entered employment outcomes and reportable services will be monitored to ensure that our veteran performance indicators and migrant and seasonal farm worker performance indicators are not adversely affected. II. Labor Exchange Program Initiatives A. Two primary applicants groups are targeted for follow-up, Veterans and Migrant and Seasonal Farm workers. These individuals are contacted repeatedly to determine the results of referrals, reportable services, obtained employment outcomes from reportable services, or for additional referrals to jobs and/or additional services to meet their employment goals. An emphasis is placed on these target groups to help meet compliance standards. Youth are also targeted during the summer job hunt program to help them obtain summer employment. Other applicants are contacted if an employer indicates they did not show for a job referral. This is done primarily to determine if an inappropriate referral was made or if they obtained employment and need to be inactivated. Applicants are also contacted during job matches . If they no longer need our services, they are also inactivated. Employers are contacted within 72 hours to determine if additional referrals or additional services needed. Hard to fill job orders are discussed with the employer and assistance is offered in searching for alternative skills. If applicable, additional labor market information is made available to improve the number of referrals. A quarterly survey is conducted with employers to determine the level of customer satisfaction and an immediate follow up is completed on all dissatisfied customers. 9 00673 26 B. There is no mechanism in place for claiming credit for entered employment of applicants who apply for job orders listed directly on AJB by employers. Follow-up is conducted with employers who list with Employment Services. If an applicant sends a resume or information in response to one of our job orders, a partial application is completed and a referral is made and the results are posted when the job order is closed. C. Employer participation and involvement in the Weld County Workforce Development Region has been addressed in the One Stop Plan located on Attachment 18. page 8. D. The TANF program has had some impact in the workload, however, since Employment Services was responsible for the implementation of the work programs under the previous welfare program, the impact was minimal. Adjustments were made primarily in the development of an assessment and job seeking process. The Employer Relations Unit markets our job orders more effectively to TANF applicants and recipients so there has been an increase in referrals to job orders. E. Information is made available to applicants regarding the Workers Opportunity Tax Credit.. The Colorado Department of Labor and Employment provides the necessary correspondence and resource materials and training in order to operate the program. The WOTC and Welfare-to Work tax credit information is made available to employers. Additional efforts will be made to increase employer awareness and utilization of these programs. Employment Services marketing strategy will include a fact sheet to be given to employers, a link to our home page with other home pages discussing these programs, and the inclusions of this information in our employer brochures. We will also develop an introductory card that applicants can provide to prospective employers if they are eligible for these programs. F. Employment Services of Weld County plans to continue and enhance its employer marketing plan to increase the number of job orders and openings received. Marketing strategies will include the following:. N. Distribute additional marketing information ► Contact at least 10 employers quarterly who use the want ads to explain and offer our services ► Forums and focus groups of related industries ► Market resources available on the Internet ► Provide Job Match Demonstrations to employers a Contact employers to participate in job fairs ► Attend Chamber of Commerce meeting to promote services ► Distribute our One Stop Information at Chambers, Economic Development, and other contact points in the community ► Market America's Job Bank and Talent Bank to Employers ► Actively participate with the Economic Development Action partnership to promote new business and assisting expanding businesses 980673 27 Employment Services of Weld County plans to increase the number of services to job seekers beyond work registration by making all core services readily available to applicants.

Internet sites, major employers, etc. One Stop Center information will be made available at schools throughout Weld County and at other community access points. Use of technology through the Internet, America's Job Bank, America Talent Bank and other resources through the home page will promoted. Employment Services will reduce the transition time (duration) of workers from unemployment to reemployment through the areas addressed in Section III: Services to Unemployment Insurance (UI) Claimants III. Services to Unemployment Insurance (UI) Claimants - Please describe how you plan to: Unemployment Insurance (UI) claimants will benefit from the enhancements of one stop services and the provision of core services described in the implementation plan. The increase in the delivery of services beyond work registration to be provided to UI claimants was addressed in the previous section. UI claimants are provided labor market information and a job match during or after in initial assessment interview. Registrants are provided with appropriate job referrals. A work search agreement is developed and all UI claimants are encouraged to contact our office monthly. UI claimants are provided with written resource information including job lines. major employer contacts, and Internet addresses to assist them with their job seeking endeavors.

The planned service levels to substantial segment groups are not disproportionate to their representation in the eligible population. 2. This Section describes the local/regional labor market conditions. These conditions include job growth projections by industry and occupations in the public and private sectors, secondary job growth, occupational supply/demand analysis. and prevailing wage rates. One of the greatest local labor problems that Weld County will face in the future is the low availability of a labor force which possesses the adequate basic skills required by employers. Some employers will have difficulty in retaining employees who possess marketable or transferable skills,however, it is hoped that this will influence employers to increase wages for entry level positions. 980673 32 Based upon information provided by the Greeley Area Chamber of Commerce, the composite index shows an increase in residential construction. The Economic Development Action Partnership (EDAP) of Weld County has projected that Weld County will experience a continued moderate grolAth in new jobs. It is expected that the unemployment rate will remain around the 4-5 % level. For 1998 and beyond EDAP expects to target S12 to $1 8/hour wage level jobs in high-tech manufacturing, aerospace and agri- processing industries. Based upon historical data gathered by the University of Colorado Economics Department, Weld County will continue to reflect a slow growth in the secondary job sector. This growth will primarily result from the growth currently reflected and projected in the primary job sector base. The occupational growth and demand information for Weld County is contained in Chart II. The Occupational Supply/Demand Report will be used as a guideline when training is identified as a needed service to ensure that the training is in a field that indicates either existing or projected job openings. 33 980673 Chart II NORTHEAST AREA VOCATIONAL PLANNING REGION 1* RANK ORDER OF OCCUPATIONS BY TOTAL AVERAGE ANNUAL OPENINGS AA AA TOTAL AVERAGE OES- OPENINGS OPENING AA HOURLY WAGE RANK CODE OCCUPATIONAL TITLE GROWTH PLACEMENT OPENINGS 10/84-3/85 1 49011 Salesperson-Retail 541 190 351 $ 5.00 2 49023 Cashier 381 93 288 $ 4.63 3 19005 General Manager 357 71 286 $ 5.49 4 k 41002 Line Supervisor,Sales 318 64 254 $ 6.19 5 55108 Secretary, Medical or Legal 375 236 139 $ 6.88 6 43014 Securities 275 . 136 139 $ 5.38 7 55347 General Office Clerk 322 204 118 $ 4.83 8 32502 Registered Nurses 379 276 103 $12.18 9 31395 Teachers, Secondary 274 173 101 $ 6.62 10 31308 Teachers,Elementary 225 133 92 $ 9.49 11 97103 Truck Driver,Heavy 192 100 92 $ 7.89 12 85302 Auto Mechanic 101 20 81 $ 7.49 13 66008 Nursing Aides&Orderlies 264 193 71 $ 5.13 14 51002 Line Supervisor,Clerical 142 73 69 $ 6.24 15 62041 Child Care Worker 269 205 64 $ 5.13 16 85132 Teacher's Aide 142 78 64 $ 5.83 17 66008 Nursing Aides&Orderlies 142 78 64 $'5.13 18 22502 Civil Engineer 269 205 64 $ 8.58 19 55305 Receptionist 196 136 60 $ 6.63 20 85132 Maintenance Mechanic 146 97 49 $ 6.28 21 25104 Computer Programmers 138 96 45 $ 8.00 22 31521 Teacher Aide 142 97 45 $ 5.01 23 97105 Truck Driver,Light 209 164 45 $ 6.97 24 21114 Accountants&Auditors 129 85 44 $ 7.50 25 25102 System Analyst 186 145 41 $ 7.94 26 32102 Physician 125 84 41 $ 6.58 27 68104 Amusement&Recreation Atten. 62 23 39 $ 5.00 • 28 49999 All Other Service Sales 75 39 36 $ 6.00 29 22126 Electrical&Electronic Repair 61 30 31 $ 6.03 6 30 63008 Fire Fighter 29 $ 6.73 31 63017 Corrections Officers&Jailers 75 56 19 $12.00 32 66005 Medical Assistant 59 45 14 $ 720 33 31514 Counselor 10 $12.02 34 28305 Paralegal 31 24 7 $ 6.50 Vocational Planning Region 1: Cheyenne, Elbert, Kit Carson, Larimer, Lincoln, Morgan, Phillips, Sedgwick, Washington,Weld, and Yuma Counties ** OES Code: Occupational Employment Statistics Code Data Source: Occupational Employment Outlook. 1993- 1998 Occupational Supply/Demand Report,Labor Market Information Section.Colorado Department of Employment and Training,Fiscal • 98%73 34 Chart III shows the comparison of the average annual openings and wage structure within Weld County Panning Region 1, and Metro Denver Planning Region 3.

Goals and Objectives 1. The primary goal of the Weld County SDA and Private Industry Council/Workforce Development Board for the JTPA Program is to deliver services which will assist individuals • in gaining the skills necessary to obtain and maintain a job which will lead to economic self- sufficiency. Areas designed to meet this goal include: the structure of Employment Services, linkages and coordination factors, and the development and delivery of service models. To assist target client groups, emphasis will be placed on the objective assessment, Individual Service Strategy, the development and commitment to long term high skill training options, and wrap-around supportive services. A major objective will be to continue to improve the delivery system to increase non-traditional employment opportunities for women. Employment Services recognizes that JTPA placement wages need to meet state/federal performance standards in order to promote long-term labor market participation. However, Weld County wages have been and continue to be consistently lower than the rest of the State. When determining the provision of training for individuals, Employment Services considers . the following factors of the Weld County labor force: P. Unemployment rates are expected to continue at the same levels of 3% to 4% for the remainder of 1998 and 1999. ► Wage rates are projected to continue to be below the State's average wage rates. ► Job growth will continue to be gradual. 980673 36 • The labor force, specifically the unemployed population. cannot compete effectively for available job openings and lacks the basic entry level skills that employers desire. Employment Services will provide training in any demand occupation for which training is available, employment exists in the local area or where the individual is willing to relocate, and the projected wage for the selected occupation is high enough to lead to self-sufficiency. 2. The training goals for hard-to-serve individuals is located as Attachment 19 ("Analysis of Service Levels to Substantial Segments and Hard to Serve Individuals"). Weld County has implemented specific efforts in recruiting and enrolling individuals targeted as most in need by initiating the following: • Employment Services has entered into various coordination agreements/arrangements with local agencies to provide adequate enrollment opportunities to individuals identified as most in need, i.e., Weld County Department of Social Services, Colorado Development Service Incorporated, Right-to-Read, Colorado Division of Vocational Rehabilitation, etc. • Extensive outreach is provided through school districts to identify and enroll youth for year round and summer programs. School districts also assist in outreach efforts for youth who drop out of school. • Recruitment occurs with individuals seeking work through Job Service and the Employment First Food Stamp Job Search Program. The Job Service's Local Veterans Employment Representative is also required to recruit eligible veterans,with an emphasis placed on disabled and special disabled veterans in need of employment and training services. • Coordination agreements and arrangements have been entered into with the Educational Opportunity Center, through Colorado State University, and the Greeley Dream Team Talent Search Program to facilitate the referral to and provision of educational training opportunities for low-income individuals. • Various community organizations and other adult and youth serving agencies are informed about our services through participation in subcommittees of the Weld County Private Industry Council, through presentations, involvement of staff in various community groups, and direct contact with these organizations. This type of outreach provides for the marketing of our services to those individuals in the,target populations. 3. The performance standard work sheets are included as Attachment 20. C. Coordination of SDAs in a Single Labor Market I. The Weld County SDA does not anticipate any major agreements or contracts for shared costs or services with other SDA's. At times, it is more convenient for individuals to be served by a connecting SDA such as Larimer, Boulder, or Adams. When this occurs,the SDA Directors give concurrence for the individual to be served and the SDA that provides the services covers the costs. 980673 37 2. The Weld County SDA/OSC Colorado Service Delivery Area Coordination Agreement is included as Attachment 21. D. Coordination Criteria The following narrative briefly addresses the eight (8) requirements under the Governor's Coordination Criteria for the Weld County SDA. I) Local Coordination Efforts The Weld County SDA promotes and develops local coordination through joint planning and where appropriate, the identification and sharing of resources. The local planning process is ongoing. The results from the local planning efforts with the agencies listed in Section 121(b)(I)of the JTPA as amended are addressed in this section or Attachment 22A and 22B, Linkages. 2) Comprehensive Local Planning The Weld County SDA and Private Industry Council/Workforce Development Board continuously reviews the current local planning process established for comprehensive local planning for education, employment and training services and makes changes which will enhance coordination efforts when necessary. 3) Local Plan Review The Weld County joint planning process currently includes an adequate mechanism for plan review and comment procedure with the Job Service Center, and social service agencies. Providers of vocational education and other local agencies involved in employment and training activities also have significant input into the JTPA plan. The Weld County Private Industry CounciUWorkforce Development Board and the SDA work with the Weld County Department of Social Services on joint planning for the TANF Program. A local agreement is entered into between Employment Services of Weld County (SDA) and Social Services for the delivery of the employment and training and work components of the TANF Program by Employment Services. 4) Coordination with Economic Development Activities The President of the Economic Development Action Partnership has been actively involved with the Private Industry Council. The Executive Director provides quarterly status reports and in addition his assistant actively participates on a PIC subcommittee. Information on JTPA Programs is provided to employers, and employers are encouraged to work with the SDA clients and programs. 980673 38 5) Joint Planning with Local Education Agencies for Youth and Adult Educational Services The Weld County Private Industry Council/Workforce Development Board and Employment Services coordinate with existing educational systems for the delivery of services. Joint participation occurs on committees and boards. In addition to PIC/WFB members, representatives from other youth initiatives are involved in the Youth Activities Committee. Written agreements are entered into with the Greeley Dream Team, and the Colorado State University's Educational Opportunity Center. Agreements have been entered into with local school districts for the purpose of increasing the coordination of service efforts for youth and to refer those youth who drop out of school to the SDA. 6) Coordination with the Colorado Department of Labor and Employment The Colorado Department of Labor and Employment contracts with the Board of Weld County Commissioners to perform the function of Job Service. Employment Services of Weld County is the Job Service Center. 7) Coordination with Organized Labor A representative from organized labor, who was selected by the AFL-CIO, is a member of the PIC. As the Job Service Center, Employment Services will participate in lay-off assistance workshops, provided by AFL-CIO, to employers undergoing mass lay-off. E. PIC/WFB Annual Report 1. Employment Services assures that it will submit an annual report that meets the requirements of Section 104(6)(13) by September 30, 1999 and 2000. 2. Employment Services assures that it will submit a two page summary report of the FY 99 SYETP by November 30, 1999. F. Linkages 1. A description of the linkages for the Weld County SDA is included as Attachment 22. 2. Weld County SDA's policy and procedures for coordination with student financial aid programs is included as Attachment 23. The Weld County SDA's Student Financial Aid Policy requires that participants apply for Pell grants. If a participant is eligible for a Pell grant, or any other financial assistance under Title IV of the Higher Education Act, the amount of the assistance awarded is considered when determining the individual's overall financial need. JTPA funds supplement, rather than supplant Pell and other student financial aid resources. To ensure that there is no duplication of funding, and to avoid double billing for educational costs, the SDA counselor will send a letter to the educational institution describing the costs (tuition, fees, books and supplies) that JTPA funds will pay for the client. The client will use the Pell grant or other financial assistance to pay for other costs associated with attending school. 980673 39 G. Recruitment and Selection 1. Outreach and recruitment efforts for the program will be accomplished through the cooperative referral of individuals from agencies such as Job Service, Social Services, the Division of Vocational Rehabilitation,county school districts. Aims Community College, and other human service agencies. Various agencies have been provided with an eligibility tool to assist them in determining appropriate referrals to JTPA programs. based upon eligibility criteria. Efforts to make individuals aware of and encourage the use of employment and training services include dissemination of information through programs serving employers,customized training packages as appropriate, newspaper articles, radio announcements, agency electronic message boards, agency brochures, and agency coordination agreements. 2. The outreach, recruitment, and intake process will focus on identifying applicants who have one or more barriers as described in Section 203 (b) of the Amended Act. Weld County monitors the 65%barrier requirement weekly and adjusts the recruitment. intake and selection process accordingly to ensure that this requirement is met. 3. Information detailing the full array of services available through the Weld County SDA programs is given to each applicant during the intake orientation. During the intake process, or at any point the client is determined to need additional services, staff will make referrals to appropriate agencies or programs. Staff will assist the individual by providing all available information on how to access the service(s) needed and as appropriate, assist the individual in making an appointment. The referrals will be documented in either the counselor notes, or the ISS at the time of client application. II. Program Requirements A. Additional Barrier 1. Adult Single parents are Weld County's category for an additional barrier for adults. Single parents face serious barriers to employment due to the following: 1) only one potential income for the family, 2) many have children over the age of six and under 17, 3) many receive food stamps (although not all)but not public assistance,4) work history is limited, or obtained in only low- paying occupations. Through intervention and training, these individuals may be diverted from welfare programs and thereby become self-sufficient. In School Youth The additional barrier for in-school youth is "Youth considered at risk of dropping out of school". This would include one or more of the following factors: a record of poor attendance, frequent absences,tardiness or truancy; has significant deficiencies such as functioning below grade level or has an identifiable learning disability; a pregnant/parenting teen; has an emotional or behavioral problem; is enrolled in an alternative school or is attending a special in-school program; has dropouts in the family; is a foster or emancipated child;has significant 40 980673 family problem(s), and/or is involved in the juvenile justice system. Out-of-School Youth The additional out-of-school barrier is "Youth considered at risk of not succeeding in employment". This may include one or more of the following: past poor attendance at school; behavioral problems which may have resulted in suspension; significant learning deficiencies; is enrolled in an alternative school; has dropouts in the family; is a foster child; has significant family problem(s) which is a barrier to education or employment. 2. Adult Barrier Current Weld County statistics indicate that of the total single parent population currently being served, approximately 35% of this group is not receiving public assistance and/or does not fall into another barrier category. In-School Bather Weld County statistics indicate that of the in-school population, approximately 48% of the youth are at risk of dropping out. Out-of-School Bather Statistics indicate that of the out-of-school youth population currently being served, approximately 9%are foster children, and 80%have reading levels below 9th grade. There are no statistics available on dropouts in family or family problems,but it is felt that numerous out- of-school youth have these situations in their life. 3. Adult The JTPA application lists family size and members of the family. In addition, a self- attestation regarding single parent status will be included in the file. Youth Youth will have documentation in the file indicating their additional barrier. Documentation may include notations in the counselor notes,which will be supported by supporting statements from schools, or documentation from schools, other programs, or agencies which attest to the particular barrier(s) which apply to that youth. B. Assessment/Selection 1. JTPA applicants are assessed for reading and math skills during initial assessment. Initial assessment also includes a determination of the clients barriers to employment, their basic skills and life circumstances and a determination of whether JTPA services may be appropriate. 2. Upon completion of the application and initial assessment, individuals will be enrolled in the objective assessment process and the case manager will use assessment information in the determination of needed services for use in the ISS. Initial assessment information helps determine if JTPA services may be appropriate for the client and whether the objective assessment process should start. 41 980673 3. The procedures for initial assessment and enrollment determination for in-school and out-of- school youth is the same as for adults. C. Objective Assessment 1. The objective assessment includes a determination of the capabilities, needs, and vocational potential of a participant, and the information obtained is used to develop the ISS and determine the individual's employment goal. The objective assessment is designed to be client centered, and includes the evaluation of the participant's employment barriers, taking into consideration the participant's family situation. work history, education, occupational skills. interests, aptitudes (including interests and aptitudes for nontraditional occupations), attitude towards work, motivation, behavior patterns affecting potential employment, financial resources and needs, supportive service needs and personal employment information as it relates to the local labor market. The Objective Assessment Instrument is included as Attachment 24. 2. Assessment is an ongoing process which changes according to what is occurring in a participant's life, work, or training situation. The case manager will update the ISS based on the information obtained in this ongoing assessment as needed, or will implement additional formal assessment if necessary. 3. The Weld County SDA uses an assessment tool which captures the above information. A variety of assessment instruments are used to aid in the obtainment of this information and may vary according to the participant's needs and abilities. Some of the tools used are: Personal Inventory Assessment. interviews, vocational interests tests, ABLE or TABE, and the GATB test. D. Individual Service Strateev 1. The Weld County ISS is an individualized plan which includes the employment goal, specifies achievement objectives, and identifies the services and strategies to be used for the participant to achieve the overall training objectives. The following is addressed in the ISS: the needs and concerns raised in the objective assessment, the activity(ies) and the estimated completion target dates, the responsibility of each person regarding the activity(ies), and the referral to other agencies which will provide services to the participant while involved in the stated activity(ies). The ISS is developed in conjunction with the participant and reflects the interests and desires of the participant. 2. ISS progress reviews and updates will occur when there is a significant variance to the ISS. For example, a significant variance would be when a change results in a new service mix, new program goal, or new supportive service need. A significant change would not include a short term transportation need. These changes would be documented in the case notes. Updates will occur when a major objective, such as the obtainment of a GED, completion of training, etc.. occur and new strategies or services are required. The ISS is located as Attachment 25. 3. The process for the development of the ISS for in-school and out-of-school youth are the same as that for adults. 42 980673 E. Authorized Services 1. Direct Training Employment Services of Weld County will make the following services available to participants: Basic Education and Remediation 1) Description of Services to be Provided Basic education and remedial activities will be strongly encouraged for all clients who either lack a GED or the basic skills for employment. This activity will usually be provided in conjunction with other planned activities. Participants lacking a high school education will be enrolled in GED/ABE classes or remedial activities. These activities will be provided by Aims Community College, tutorial programs, and/or the programs available through the learning lab at Employment Services of Weld County. 2) Means of Involving Labor Organizations and CBO's in the Provision of Services It is not anticipated that labor organizations will be involved in the delivery of basic education and/or remedial services. 3) Estimated Duration of Services It is estimated that the average duration for Basic Education will be approximately 6 months. 4) Estimated Cost per Participant It is estimated that the average cost per participant will be $1,500.00. 5) Competency Levels to be Achieved The Competency to be achieved may include a GED, a basic education competency, or remedial work to attain a level which will provide the participant the skills needed to obtain the stated employment goal. 6) Procedure for Evaluating Progress of Participants Case managers monitor the progress of participants on a biweekly basis. Documents monitoring the progress are dependent upon who delivers the service. For example, if the participant is attending Aims Community College, the case manager will document progress in the log notes after discussion with the teacher. If the participant is attending the learning lab, weekly progress and attendance forms are provided to the case manager. 7) Tracking Hours of Participation Actual training hours for participants are tracked and recorded based on client attestation and/or time sheets from the training activity. At the beginning of classes, the case manager will determine the schedule for attending this activity. For example, if the class 980673 43 meets two times per week, for three hours per day, and the participant is scheduled for 24 weeks, the case manager will note 144 training hours. At the end of the scheduled activity, the case manager will ask the participant how many hours were not attended. The number of actual participation hours will then be determined for that segment. If the competency level or GED is not attained, then the same process will follow and the total hours will be adjusted. At the termination of the activity, the case manager will total all hours and enter the actual hours into the record. Occupational Skill Training I) Services to be Provided Adult This activity will provide individuals with specific occupational skills both of a cognitive nature, as well as the manual skills necessary to perform a specific job or group of jobs. Participants are selected for this activity based on their objective assessment and ISS, availability of employment in the skill area, the probability of receiving a self-sufficient wage when employed, and the client's interest in completing the training. Occupational Skill Training programs will be developed in accordance with Private Industry guidelines which include: ► Training tailored towards employer needs. ► Training in-line with the skills, aptitudes and interests of the populations served. ► Training geared towards entry level employment if appropriate. To ensure that the training is in occupations in demand, local employers will assist in the determination of specific training. The occupational areas outlined in Chart III will be used as a guide in the development of training opportunities. Employers will be involved at the beginning to ensure that training efforts will result in actual jobs,and that these jobs are available in the Weld County labor market or in an area where the participant is willing to relocate.

This component is designed to provide a job specific competency. 44 980673 A Job Specific Training Outline provides for the pre- and post-assessment of the training. Objectives are based on the vocational skills to be learned, tools and materials to be used, basic education required and the planned outcomes of the training. The youth will be assessed continually during the training. The training will be considered effective if the youth demonstrates an 80%proficiency level of the criteria outlined in the Job Specific Training Outline, as determined by the on-site observation of performance by the instructor of the training or the work site supervisor. The effectiveness of this training is based on the attainment of specific skills which will assist the youth obtain employment. 2) Involving Labor Organizations in the Provisions of Services It is not anticipated that labor organizations 1. ill be involved in the delivery of occupation skill training. If a specific labor organization develops an occupational skill training program which meets the labor market and client needs, the program would be considered. 3) Estimated Duration of Services It is estimated that the average duration of this activity will be one year. For youth, if the job specific training is to be conducted at a public or private work site, the average duration of this activity will be 250 hours. 4) Estimated Cost per Participant It is estimated that the average cost per participant will be $1,520. 5) Competency Level to be Achieved Adult At this time the Weld County SDA has not established Adult Competencies.

At the beginning of classes, the case manager will determine the schedule for attending this activity. For example, if the class meets two times per week, for three hours per day, and the participant is scheduled for 24 weeks, the case manager will note 144 training hours. At the end of the scheduled activity,the case manager will ask the participant how many hours were not attended. For training that is completed and the competency was obtained, the number of actual participation hours will be determined for that segment by subtracting the number of hours not attended from the total number of scheduled hours. If the competency level or required training is not attained,then the same process will follow and the total hours will be adjusted. At the termination of the activity, the case manager will total all hours and enter the actual hours into the record.

Lta f..".EII L _ EMPLOYMENT SERVICES OF WELD COUNTY Policies and Procedures Date: October 8. 1993 Policy: Classroom Trainin2: Student Financial Aid Coordination and Federal Pell Grants PURPOSE: To provide guidance and establish minimum standards to JTPA staff which outlines the procedures for approval of classroom training and the coordination of student financial aid programs under Title IV of the Higher Education Act, including the Federal Pell Grant. POLICY: The Weld County Private Industry Council and Employment Services adopts a classroom training/ student financial aid coordination and Federal Pell Grants policy to ensure: o all JTPA/Title III applicants are treated equally and fairly regarding determination of approval for classroom training and with respect to all financial aid including Federal cell Grants and JTPA assistance; o applicants are served expeditiously, without long delays in JTPA award decisions or dependence on prior student financial aid award decisions; o non-duplication of funding and the avoidance of double billing for educational costs; and, o that JTPA will supplement rather than supplant Pell and other student financial aid resources. PROCEDURES: Supervisors and staff will ensure that all individuals enrolled in the JTPA Programs and requesting funding assistance for classroom training will complete an educational assistance application (See Exhibit 1) . The assistance application and the following areas will be considered before approval of training funds. The major considerations to be addressed is the appropriateness of the training for the client. This requires a thorough review of the: o client' s previous education; o current functioning level: o client' s career goals; o client' s aptitude for the selected field; o availability and length of training; o cost of training; o ability of the client to be financially able to undertake and complete training; and. o potential for employment after completion of training which offers an adequate entry level wage leading to self sufficiency. S0673 In general . the training should provide the client with the ability to become employed immediately following gaining at a wage that will sustain a self sufficient status for the client for the foreseeable future. Also. in order to serve as many JTPA clients as possible. the training should be of the shortest possible duration to accomplish the desired employment objective and at the lowest possible expenditure of JTPA funds. The following sections detail some of the specific concerns which should be addressed in the development and approval of an educational training strategy. Previous EducationtExperience Determine. record and document to the extent possible, the client' s previous education or training. This should include job related training, past work experience, and formai education. Current Punctionine Level Consider the results of any assessment tests already given such as the ABLE, TARE. etc. If there is a wide disparity between the functioning level and the attained educational level . the Educational Coordinator should be consulted to assist in the evaluation. :t may he necessary to plan for some form of remediation. Career Goals Career goal(s) should be the client' s . not the "goals" of the case manager. During the objective assessment process . all information obtained should be used to determine a realistic career goal . Information from vocational preference inventory tests, general aptitude tests , and/or other information should be considered when determining realistic employment goals . Client' s Aptitude While a client may be very determined about their career goal, the case manager should verify the client' s aptitude and/or potential for the training. Erolovmentlwaees Potential The potential for employment must be determined before any vocational or educational training is initiated or approved. This should include interviews with the proposed training facility and surveys with potential employers. An assessment of the client' s willingness to relocate and/or commute should be explored and considered. (Caution: The training facility is in business to train, not to place graduates in employment. ) The survey of employers, with a minimum of three different employers. should include the following information: * entry level wage; * does the position require working shifts; * which shift is most likely for entry level; * requires special clothing, tools, or licenses; * education requirements; * previous experience desired; * potential for employment if individual possesses all requirements; * expected number of job openings; * related job occupations; * employer' s perspective of long range outlook for this occupation; * does the position require having your own transportation; and, * does the employer hire for entry level positions. 990673 Availability and Length of Training Training may be offered at more than one facility. If this is the case, one facility may be preferable for the client and his circumstances. Care should be exercised to assure that the best training is obtained for the client in the shortest period of time. If there is a "fast track" that can be pursued. it should be weighed against a longer program in terms of cost and outcome. Client' s Financial Situation The ability of the client to complete a training program rests many times with his ability to sustain himself financially during training. This is addressed in the educational assistance application and the objective assessment. The information regarding potential problems can be addressed and solutions found in advance. In some cases a part time job in another field may be the answer. In other cases it may even require a complete change in the service strategy. In any event, these concerns must be addressed and resolved with the client prior to approval of training. Cost of Training Training expenses are the major costs for JTPA funding. Therefore, it is necessary to explore all sources of funding available to the client when considering approval for training. Pell Grants, cooperative funding with another agencies such as Vocational Rehabilitation, or other sources of funding should be considered and individuals should be encouraged/required to apply for such funding. The cost of JTPA funding for training should be limited to a maximum of $2,500.00 per client for the duration of the training. The amount of funding will be based on individual need and other financial resources available to the individual. Exceptions to this limit will require approval of the Director. (See Exhibit 2) Coordination with Federal Pell Grant and other student financial assistance programs under Title IV of the HEA The JTPA 1992 amendments require all SDAs and SSGs to: * Document the I55 with the determination agreed upon with the educational institution, of the participant' s financial assistance needs for training and the proper mix of JTPA and HEA Title IV funds: * Furnish educational institutions with the names of JTPA participants who are to attend such institutions and for whom JTPA payments will be made; * Document the ISS to show sufficient coordination with other resources available, to ensure to the extent practicable, that there is sufficient funding for the participant to successfully complete the agreed upon program. The minimum coordination with educational institutions will consist of the: Exchange of Financial Information Contracts, training authorizations or scholarship awards to Title IV eligible educational institutions shall identify available JTPA resources and stipulate that the educational institution' s financial aid officer shall inform the JTPA provider of the amounts and disposition of AEA Title IV awards and any other type of financial aid to each JTPA participant. gS0673 Individual Service Strategy (ISS) and Release of Information If the objective assessment and the ISS determine that classroom for aingTat g at a Title IV eligible educational institution is appropriate participant. a release of information will be signed by the participant which allows the JTPA provider to release JTPA assistance information to the educational institution, and allows the educational institution to release HEA financial assistance information back to the JTPA provider. In addition, the student budget for educational and living expenses should be included in the ISS and should include a comparison of costs to available resources. Three Party Agreement Staff will provide the participant who receives a Federal Pell grant with an agreement which indicates the portion of the HEA grant to be applied htoJthe the cost of tuition, fees, and books. This agreement must be signed ed by staff person. the participant. and 'a representative of the educational institution. The agreement and any documentation or verification must be kept in the participant' s file and made available for program monitoring purposes. (See Exhibit 3) The financial assistance plan will be used to facilitate the transfer of information between the SDA and the educational institution. The financial aid office will determine the cost of attendance budget for each participant at the time of application for assistance. This budget may be used, along with an estimate of Title IV award, to determine if sufficient resources are available to allow the participant to successfully complete the training program. 990673 Client Name Employer Job Title Researched 7.
