Current Narrative:

III (6) (A) (i) Delaware has aligned and integrated the data and performance for the following programs:

• WIOA Adults • WIOA Dislocated Workers • WIOA Youth • WIOA Statewide Activities • WIOA National Programs • Wagner Peyser • Trade Adjustment Assistance • TANF Employment and Training • Jobs for Veterans State Grants Programs authorized under State unemployment compensation laws are interfaced with JobLink.

The remaining Core Partners, Vocational Rehabilitation and Adult Education have individual electronic systems. The same is true for the remaining required one–stop partners; Job Corp, Senior Community Service employment and training programs, Career and Technical Education programs at the post–secondary level, employment and training programs carried out by the Department of Housing and Urban Development, and second chance. Discussion is continuing looking for opportunities for further alignment.

At a minimum, aggregated wage data and employment data will be provided to the two partners not fully aligned in JobLink. The registration of all work ready individuals in JobLink will assist this effort but other means of providing data such a using a flat file may be utilized. The integrity of the Unemployment Insurance wage data will be maintained.

As of this writing, there is no hard and fast guidance regarding the use of cross–platform data. Core partners have heard that they will continue to report quarterly through their habitual chains and a, as yet to be determined methodology will be used for an annual report.

As per RSA guidance on 8/13/2015, DVR will work with partners to align and integrate data, but until specifically advised, will continue to maintain data required by RSA
