Current Narrative:

performance accountability system will focus on the six required WIOA common Measures as applicable to each core program. Additional goals beyond the six are not planned at this time. As Delaware consists of a single statewide workforce investment area, State performance levels are established to promote accountability while supporting the Governor’s desire to assure that Delaware’s employment and training system is open to the hardest to serve adults and youth with special needs and barriers to employment.

DDOE Adult Education will be able to track client entry, persistence and completion through several methods. Since clients will develop career plans while engaged in Title II programming, placement in employment, and/or postsecondary education will be a performance target for each provider.

• For clients entering degree granting institutions, a statewide data match with the resources of the Delaware P20 council will provide the required information.

• For clients entering DOL funded specific skills training, a data matching process with DJL will yield the required information.

• For clients entering specific skills training not funded through DOL, Title II providers will work with clients and trainers to attain needed information.

• For clients entering or retaining employment, an agency data match process between DOL–DET and DDOE Adult Education will be developed to document participant progress.

Under the Delaware Division for the Visually Impaired’s Vocational Rehabilitation program the agency shall use existing surveying and direct contact methods already in place with customers who are entering, persisting in, and completing postsecondary education. The agency currently requires records of enrollment, FAFSA completion, transcripts each semester (or applicable progress reporting period) for postsecondary support from the agency. The agency shall also utilize existing case management methods to track individuals entering or remaining in employment in addition to wage verification through the State of Delaware’s Unemployment Insurance database.

The DVR will run a scheduled task, monthly or quarterly, that will select candidate cases. The candidate cases will be “successful outcomes” that have not been previously selected for quarterly wage reporting. An Intermediate Database Table will be used to store all candidate wage data information. This table will be used to create a file that will be forwarded to UI for wage data processing. The results from the UI process will then be used to update the Intermediate Database Table. Reporting of the wage information will be generated using the Intermediate Database Table.
