III. b. 6. B. Assessment of Participants’ Post-program Success

Describe how lead State agencies will use the workforce development system to assess the progress of participants who are exiting from core programs in entering, persisting in, and completing postsecondary education, or entering or remaining in employment. States may choose to set additional indicators of performance.

Current Narrative:

Alabama utilizes UI wage rewards to track participant success for WIOA Title I and Title III programs for entered employment, employment relation and median wage measures. Agreements for Title II, (Adult Education) and Title IV Vocational Rehabilitation participants tracking for these three measures will be effected in order to track measureable employment and wage activity.

For the measures relating “Evidential Attainment”, “Measurable Skill Gains” and “Effectiveness in Serving Employers” the core partner agencies will utilize extensive call management through the Alabama Career Center System data on these measures.

The Alabama Longitudinal Data System (ALDS), once it becomes operable in 2017, should provide information on all students in postsecondary education and below. The purpose of the ALDS includes the timely and accurate information about education performance that can be used to improve the education system of all education providers and guide decision makers at all levels, to facilitate the enhancement of the performance data and workforce data. The ALDS will require the primary users of data on educational attainment, including the State and Local Workforce Development Boards to address deficiencies in the delivery of educational programs throughout the system.
