methods that are reasonably feasible," and encompass all core WIOA programs within the
statewide workforce system.
Funds may be used to help defray the costs associated with internal evaluation activities
(e.g., staff, materials, supplies, travel, etc.). Please note that the funds are discretionary and
may not be used to cover any administrative costs.
