SUBJECT:       Application Process for Workforce Investment Act (WIA) Section 503 Incentive
               Grants, based on Program Year (PY) 2007 Performance

3. Background. Section 503 of WIA provides for incentive grants to reward states for
successful performance in workforce and education programs. The provisions authorizing
funding for incentive grant awards are found in WIA section 174(b)(2)(D) for workforce
investment services (29 U.S.C. 2919(b)(2)(D)) and the Adult Education and Family Literacy Act
(AEFLA) section 211(a)(3) for adult education activities (20 U.S.C. 9211(a)(3)). A total of
$9,760,451 is appropriated for AEFLA and is available for incentive grants based on PY 2007

 RESCISSIONS                                            EXPIRATION DATE

performance. The Department of Labor’s (DOL) regulations on incentive awards may be found
at 20 CFR 666.200 through 666.230.

4. Eligibility. The list of states eligible to receive incentive grant awards based on PY 2007
performance, and the amounts of the awards for which they are eligible, are scheduled for
publication in the Federal Register on May 11, 2009. Eligibility for a section 503 incentive grant
award was determined by state performance under WIA title IB and AEFLA programs. States
that are eligible for incentive grant awards have 45 days from the May 11, 2009, Federal Register
notice to submit their applications for these awards.

5. Amount of Incentive Awards. WIA section 503(c)(1) sets the range of incentive grant
awards from $750,000 to $3 million, depending upon the amount of appropriated funds
available. If the total amount available for grants is insufficient to award the minimum grant to
each eligible state, the minimum and maximum grant amounts will be adjusted by a uniform
percentage as required by WIA section 503(c)(2). For the PY 2007 performance awards, the
criterion for determining the amount of the incentive grant within this range will be equal to the
size of the state’s programs, as measured by the state’s relative share of the combined title IB and
AEFLA formula grants awarded to that state.

6. Authorized Use of Funds. The regulations at 20 CFR 666.210 authorize the state to use its
incentive grant award to carry out an innovative program consistent with the requirements of any
one or more of the programs within title IB of WIA, AEFLA, or the Perkins Act. This provides
states greater flexibility in using these funds, and the Governors and state agencies are not
limited to only one type of innovative program.

Incentive grant funds awarded to states will be identified as WIA title V, Program Year 2008
funds and must be expended by June 30, 2011.1 Because this timeframe differs from the typical
program timeframes used by AEFLA and Perkins IV programs, cooperation among state
agencies to ensure timely expenditure of these funds is strongly encouraged.

States may expend funds for activities authorized under WIA title IB, AEFLA, and/or the
Perkins Act. While DOL administrative provisions apply to the statutory life of the funds, the
individual program provisions apply to the use of funds. For example, if the incentive funds will
be used for a WIA title IB activity for youth services, the applicable program requirements for
youth programs in 20 CFR 664 and WIA title IB would apply to that portion of the funds. If
innovative Adult Education and Literacy and/or Perkins IV programs are planned, the provisions
of AEFLA and/or Perkins IV would apply to that portion of the funds.

States are encouraged to plan activities that promote cooperation and collaboration among the
agencies administering WIA title IB, AEFLA, and Perkins Act programs. The Secretaries of
Labor and Education encourage Governors and their state agency representatives to take
advantage of the broad flexibility Congress intended for these funds by planning for activities
that are:


1 Typically, states would have three years to spend a Program Year’s funds. However, because incentive grants, taken from FY 2008

funds, will be awarded at the end of Program Year 2008, states will be given through June 30, 2011, to expend the funds.



                                                               2

A.   Innovative — Services and activities beyond those the state conducts with its regular funds
     from these programs, particularly activities that are authorized through more than one
     program;
B.   Comprehensive and coordinated — Combined activities and services that are authorized by
     different programs; and
C.   Targeted to improving system performance — Activities that serve needs and populations
     that are likely to result in improving state systems of employment, training, and education,
     including those linking to “green” occupations and high-growth industries.

As states plan how they will make use of the section 503 incentive funds, the Employment and
Training Administration (ETA) encourages them to take an expansive view of how the funds can
be integrated into efforts to improve the effectiveness of the public workforce system. State
Departments of Labor and Education can work together to focus on workforce education and
training projects that will facilitate innovative workforce and education policies within a state.

Additionally, ETA encourages these states to coordinate programs with the American Recovery
and Reinvestment Act of 2009 (Recovery Act) resources. The Recovery Act, signed by
President Obama on February 17, 2009, is intended to preserve and create jobs, promote the
nation’s economic recovery, and assist those most impacted by the recession. It is ETA’s
expectation that states will provide additional services and training to current customers as well
as provide services and training to a greater number of individuals over the next 18 months using
strategies that meet immediate needs while supporting longer-term economic recovery.

7. Application Process. To receive grant funds, states that qualify must apply by sending an
original and two copies of an application for an incentive grant to the DOL. The DOL will work
with the Department of Education to review the applications (electronic transmissions are
allowable as long as electronic signatures are included). The application may take the form of a
letter from the Governor to DOL’s Deputy Assistant Secretary for Employment and Training
(addresses are listed below), and must include the following:

A.   Assurances

     The application must include the Standard Form 424 and 424a (Application for Federal
     Assistance) forms and assurances that:

         i.    The state legislature was consulted with respect to the development of the
               application;

        ii.    The application was approved by the Governor, the eligible agency for adult
               education (as defined in section 203(4) of WIA (20 U.S.C. 9202(4)) and the state
               agency responsible for career and technical education programs (as defined in
               section 3(12) of Perkins IV (20 U.S.C. 2302(12)); and

       iii.    The state and the eligible agency, as appropriate, exceeded the state adjusted
               levels of performance for WIA title IB and the state adjusted levels of
               performance for AEFLA in PY 2007.



                                                3

B.   Additional Information

     The state must provide a description of the planned use of incentive grants as part of the
     application process to ensure that the state’s planned activities are authorized under the
     WIA title IB, AEFLA, and/or Perkins Act, as required by WIA section 503(a). When
     describing the planned activities in response to number ii, below, the state should note under
     which program the authorized activities fall.

     The other descriptive information (see numbers iii and iv below) about the state’s plan is
     requested for inclusion in the state’s incentive grant document. The Department of Labor
     and the Department of Education will use this information in monitoring the use of
     incentive grants and in reports to Congress on state performance. (Note: The state’s receipt
     of an incentive grant is not contingent on this other descriptive information, but this
     information is required for the WIA title V Grant Agreement.)

         i.    Identify the state agency and contact person that will receive and administer the
               funds on behalf of all the state’s agencies. The agency may be the state workforce
               agency or another state agency that receives funds under the AEFLA or Perkins
               IV grants. This agency will be responsible for reporting on the use of all funds.
               If agencies other than the grant recipient will be undertaking program activities
               with the funds, please identify the sub-grantee(s) and the amount(s) they will be
               provided.

        ii.    Describe the planned activities. This information should include the statutory
               authority for the activity and a description of how the activities are innovative,
               comprehensive and coordinated, and targeted to improving system performance in
               accordance with the major objectives set forth in the state’s current WIA Strategic
               Plan or the State plan modification due June 30, 2009, AEFLA State Plan or
               Perkins IV State plan, as appropriate. Include information on how services build
               on, rather than duplicate, services offered under the state’s plans for AEFLA,
               Perkins IV or WIA title IB. Describe how these funds are being used
               collaboratively with other partner programs to benefit service to clients.

       iii.    Describe ways in which the activities are related to improving performance levels
               on the state indicators of performance for each different activity planned. For
               example, describe how the activities will strengthen the state’s ability to improve
               literacy levels, increase employment, increase transitions to further education and
               training, and/or improve technical and academic skills.

       iv.     Describe any state consultation with stakeholder groups and the general public on
               the use of incentive award funds. States are encouraged to seek public input on
               the use of state incentive funding, including that of representatives of adult
               education, career and technical education programs, and other workforce system
               partners.




                                                4
