Current Narrative:

The state’s current infrastructure and proposed infrastructure is positioned to meet WIOA reporting requirements. Through collaboration with the vendor of Florida’s online job matching portal, necessary data files are configured on a quarterly basis for federal reporting and submitted through the Enterprise Data Reporting Validation System. Prior to submission, files are analyzed for data consistency and vetted using internal queries and tracking reports. All reports are reviewed and approved by both DEO and CareerSource Florida staff prior to certification. Florida core partners continue to work toward improving the process via modified data sharing mechanisms and reporting protocols.
