Workforce Investment Act Programs Adult, Dislocated Worker and Program This quarter of performance reflects the first nine months of performance. Adult and Dislocated Worker services are provided directly by ACSET. services are provided by the Allegan Area Education Services Agency, Arbor Circle, Barry County Intermediate School District, Bethany Christian Services, Goodwill Industries of Greater Grand Rapids, Grand Rapids Public Schools, Hispanic Center of West Michigan, Kent Intermediate School District and Steepletown Neighborhood Services. The Adult, Dislocated Worker and programs met all performance standards for the period of July 1, 2014 through March 31, 2015 except for Adult and Dislocated Worker enrollments. Target Group populations that also fell below the standard were Asians, Persons with Disabilities, and Older (55+) Workers. The lower amount of Adult and Dislocated Worker enrollments continues to be attributed to the implementation of the Career Coach model which provides a more intensive level of service to determine suitability. Career Coaches are also working with carry-in adults from the previous program year and aiming to exit adult customers more quickly. Continued efforts have been made to reach the standard target population for Asians, Persons with Disabilities, and Older (55+) Workers. Some of these efforts include nontraditional recruiting at local community events such as the Kent County Resource Fair, the Veterans Job Club, LINC Community Revitalization and the Camp and Resource Fair Extravaganza. In addition, ACSET has included a barriers activity as part of the Career Coaching Model to increase self-disclosure and provide appropriate resources for Persons with Disabilities. Individual Training Accounts Eligible Adults and Dislocated Workers can receive up to $6,500 for twelve months of occupational skills training. During this quarter of performance, the training programs with the highest number of participants were: CDL, 42%, and C, 33%. ACSET staff and contractors exceeded the Participant performance measure and the Employer Customer satisfaction measure for this quarter. Program Expenditures Program expenditures were within the acceptable range of the planned levels except for Services. This is due to staff vacancies and fewer than planned number of paid work experiences.
