NWA Offers Legislative Briefings for Local Workforce Boards The National Workforce Association (NWA) is pleased to announce the availability of specially designed legislative briefing sessions to help state and local workforce agencies develop effective educational programs, strengthen outreach to local and state elected officials, broaden the appeal for your local workforce agenda, successfully communicate the achievements of your local One-Stop operations, and strengthen your responsiveness to the workforce development community. These legislative sessions will be customized to meet your local areas needs and give you a better understanding about the role your member of Congress plays in the Workforce Development system here in Washington. Each legislative briefing will provide practical steps that will be designed to forward the work being accomplished by your state and local workforce director, WIB members, staff and partners, One-Stop managers and contractors, state workforce associations, local economic development representatives, and local elected officials. Through the presentation of the legislative briefing sessions, NWA has been very successful in bringing the necessary attention to the workforce development issue. These sessions support the continuous improvement of the system and will aid you in your understanding of the WIA Reauthorization process. |
