Current Narrative:

III (B) (2) The State policies that will support the implementation of the State’s strategies (e.g., co–enrollment policies and universal intake processes). The one–stop system will be made up of mandatory and other partners that have signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU). The MOU establishes Delaware JobLink as the State’s Labor Exchange system. The document also establishes the program information of all partners will be available on DJL and that all partners will participate in the one–stop referral system. The MOU also establishes that when a customer is enrolled in a program that the program is responsible for eligibility and the cost of the services. This agreement is supportive of dual enrollments enabling partners to send customers to any service available in a partner program that they determine the customer to need.

Delaware is not consolidating the management information systems but is taking significant steps toward an integrated intake process. All individuals when determined work ready by the program serving them will be enrolled in Delaware JobLink. This will be accomplished either by uploading customer information from a partner system, using JobLink as work readiness tool and having the customer self– register or partner staff completing the registration. All partners will be able to track service to customers in JobLink. The extent of use by partners of JobLink will be determined by the partners based on their needs but regardless, JobLink will be the job matching tool of the one stop system for both job seekers and employers.

DVR is an eligibility program and DVR counselors will employ RSA driven methods to determine eligibility. DVR will participate with Core partners in a central referral location.
