Background: In July 2014, the Workforce Innovation and Opportunity Act (WIOA) was signed into law. WIOA is designed to help job seekers access employment, education, training, and support services to succeed in the labor market and to match employers with the skilled workers they need to compete in the global economy. WIOA is the first legislative reform of the public workforce system in 15 years. In contrast to previous legislation, WIOA requires the selection of a one-stop operator through a competitive process. The establishment of a One-Stop delivery system is a cornerstone of the reforms contained in Title I of WIOA. The One-Stop system is designed to enhance access to services and improve long-term employment outcomes for individuals seeking assistance.
The Cumberlands Workforce Development Board sets policy for workforce development programs a thirteen county region known as the Cumberlands Local Workforce Development Area. The business-led Board includes members from private industry, public entities, education and labor. It also includes representation from agencies that deliver services at the Kentucky Career Center – Cumberlands locations throughout the region.
