Describe how the State’s Strategies will engage the State’s other education and training providers, including providers on the state’s eligible training provider list, as partners in the workforce development system to create a job-driven education and training system.

Current Narrative:

WIOA State Plan Strategies 2.1 and 2.2 specifically address engagement of education and training providers. Providers in the K-12 and post-secondary arena are engaged in developing a career pathways system and are engaged in ensuring students are provided with meaningful career counseling and career preparation, including information on Indiana’s high wage, high demand occupations.

The state will continue to include education and training providers in the conversation as initiatives and policies are being decided upon. Examples include the SWIC and SWIC taskforce work, and the new Education to Career Pathways Cabinet.

The state is also working diligently with providers on the Eligible Trainer Provider List. More information on that work is in section VI.b.3 below.
