Current Narrative:
Wagner-Peyser services will continue to be aligned with Adult and Dislocated Worker services, in the Michigan Works! Services Centers, to refer job seekers for training, support services and a more intensive level of service. Wagner-Peyser dollars do not fund any training or educational opportunities. Adult and Dislocated Worker providers have established relationships with local community colleges and universities to provide training in high-demand occupations.
Employment Service staff routinely refer job seekers to training for high-demand high wage occupations. Michigan has instituted a skilled trades training fund. This will provide employers with the talent they need and job seekers with the jobs they desire.
