Describe the privacy safeguards incorporated in the State’s workforce development system, including safeguards required by section 444 of the General Education Provisions Act (20 USC 1232g - Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act (FERPA)) and other applicable Federal laws.

Currently, each of the core programs under WIOA maintains its own management information system (MIS), and adheres to the standards and laws which are applicable to the population being served and the data being collected therein. Participants (or their legal guardians where applicable for those under 18 years of age) are asked to sign release of information waivers, as appropriate, and are advised of their right to decline to share their information outside of the program to which they are applying. Provision of information is voluntary except where such information is necessary to determine program eligibility.

Additionally, data-sharing agreements between core and optional partners will provide specific and explicit instructions as to which data can and cannot be shared between programs, and under which circumstances.
