4. Fund Allotments, Goals and Objectives. ETA is awarding $31,939,520 in PY 2013 for
WIGS. ETA distributes a total of $176,655 to Guam and the Virgin Islands, and allocates the
remaining $31,762,865 by formula to the states, the District of Columbia and Puerto Rico.
For the latter group, 40 percent is distributed equally and the remaining 60 percent is
distributed based on each jurisdiction’s relative share of the civilian labor force for the 12-
month period ending September 2012. Attachment 1 shows the allocations. Hereafter, we
have incorporated the District of Columbia and the territories into the term “state.”
Each year the Employment and Training Administration (ETA) funds these LMI-WI formula
grants to the states, and specifies grant requirements. State workforce agencies use WIGS to
develop and disseminate essential state and local LMI-WI for job seekers, employers,
educators, economic developers, and others.
The main body of this TEGL describes required, encouraged and allowable activities, and
explains the rationales for ETA policies and requirements. Attachment 2 summarizes
WIGS requirements, and includes important administrative details that are not covered
in the body of the guidance, such as deadlines and submission requirements.
5. Required, Encouraged, and Allowable Activities. Grantees primarily serve four customer
groups: 1) the public (including job seekers and employers); 2) labor market intermediaries
who help individuals find a job or make career decisions (such as employment and school
counselors, case managers at American Job Centers, and community-based organizations); 3)
policymakers and employment and economic program planners and operators; and 4)
miscellaneous other customers, including researchers, commercial data providers, and the
media. Grantees have considerable flexibility to meet customer needs, but must consult their
customers and prepare several types of products.
Required products. Grantees must produce a database (a below) plus two types of public
products (b and c below). ETA encourages states to produce additional reports (d below). If
the grantee does not produce a required deliverable, it must negotiate an extension and a
revised schedule with the appropriate ETA regional office.
a. Workforce Information Database (WIDb). Accurate and reliable data is a cornerstone
of the nation’s workforce investment and employment statistics systems. The WIDb
includes the most important workforce-related data elements and defines them
consistently, ensuring comparability across jurisdictions. Its variables include
employment projections; wages; educational programs; the locations of educational and
training institutions; contact information for all U.S. employers; and occupational
licenses.
States must use WIGS funds to populate, maintain, and update the WIDb, and to provide
related staff training. Grantees must implement and maintain the most current version
(now 2.5) of WIDb and populate all Analyst Resource Center (ARC)-designated core
tables. The ARC Web site (www.workforceinfodb.org) describes all required data
elements and helps grantees obtain maximum benefit from the WIDb. The National
Crosswalk Service Center can help grantees to recode their occupational data, and
provides a repository for other types of crosswalks (www.xwalkcenter.org, or call 515-
242-5034). ETA uses the WIDb to offer career information and guidance via
CareerOneStop (www.careeronestop.org), ETA’s suite of national electronic tools for job
seekers, labor market intermediaries such as employment counselors, employers, and
many others.
b. State and local industry and occupational employment projections. These
projections are the most frequently-requested type of employment statistic besides the
unemployment rate. Projections are used for career guidance; to plan employment,
education and training, and economic development programs; as supporting
documentation to apply for Federal grants; and for many other purposes. The U.S.
Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS) funds national employment projections, but WIGS fund
the state and local projections, produced by the states with assistance from ETA and BLS.
Because ETA views employment projections as among the most important products
funded by WIGS, its projections requirements are more stringent than for other WIGS
products (see the table below). ETA’s requirements do not differ between industry and
occupational projections, but vary for long-term vs. short-term projections, and statewide
vs. sub-state projections. ETA grantees who are unable to produce the required
projections must report this to their ETA Regional Administrator.
Grantees must use the methodology, software and guidelines specified by the Projections
Managing Partnership (PMP) and its Projections Workgroup to produce all projections.
To meet these requirements, ETA encourages grantees to use WIGS funding to obtain
training provided by the PMP (see http://dev.projectionscentral.com/). Other LMI-WI
staff training is also allowable using WIGS funds.

c. A statewide annual economic analysis report. ETA regards state economic and labor
market analyses as essential to plan WIA and other Federal workforce investment system
programs. Therefore, ETA requires statewide economic analysis reports, and encourages
annual publication. However, ETA recognizes that conditions may not change
sufficiently each year to necessitate an annual report, and gives states the discretion to
determine their frequency. For years in which a comprehensive economic report is not
issued, grantees must publish other, less comprehensive economic reports of value to
state policymakers (including the governor and state legislature), as well as state and local
workforce investment boards (WIBs).
Grantees have broad discretion over the reports’ contents, but they should include
analyses of trends and challenges — at both the state and sub-state levels — of such
topics as gross domestic product; employment growth or decline (actual and projected);
unemployment and other labor market hardship indicators (such as low earnings); critical
industries and occupations; and skill shortages, mismatches and deficiencies, within the
limitations of the available data. The analyses should address the jobless population as a
whole, as well as the experiences, needs, and challenges of the jobless targeted
populations identified in ETA WIA planning requirements specified on page 3 of
http://www.doleta.gov/usworkforce/wia-planning/docs/integrated-planning-guidance.pdf.
ETA will not accept the following submissions for the economic analysis report or its
substitute: 1) data tables alone; 2) job listings; 3) maps alone; 4) reports done by the
grantee for BLS (e.g., news releases, employment situation reports, etc.); or 5) reports
funded by Federal sources other than WIGS.
d. Other economic and labor market reports and products. ETA encourages grantees to
produce other reports and data in addition to those specified above: grantees have wide
discretion in both the topics and presentation format. These reports should include
accurate data, actionable information, and resources that enable job seekers, employers,
staff in American Job Centers, policy makers, and the workforce investment system to
make informed decisions about the services, training, and career paths that lead to good
jobs. Examples of such miscellaneous products include occupational and career guidance
resources for job seekers (which may take the form of electronic self-service tools);
industry- or occupation-specific research; and studies of topics of continuing interest such
as labor or skill shortages, mismatches, and deficiencies. ETA encourages grantees to
review the reports issued by other states to obtain useful ideas
(http://www.doleta.gov/performance/results/AnnualReports/annual_report.cfm).
Other encouraged activities. ETA strongly encourages grantees to help their state Wagner-
Peyser, WIA, and other grant partners better identify and more rigorously report when
participants receive workforce information services, to ensure that performance reports better
measure the value and impact of LMI-WI. ETA also encourages grantees to 1) leverage
WIGS funds by expanding partnerships among the workforce investment system, and
education, training and economic development communities; and 2) apply for other Federal
and competitive grants to complement WIGS funds.
6. Required Methods. Grantees have considerable flexibility in how they carry out their work,
but must meet certain methodological standards in collaborating with partners, consulting
with customers, collecting data, and posting their products on the Internet.
a. Partnerships. In order to best serve their customers and optimize the Federal
investment, grantees are to establish and maintain partnerships that grantees consider
relevant and mutually beneficial. ETA believes that such partnerships can augment
resources, improve program outcomes, and help LMI-WI data influence planning and
program decisions.
b. Customer consultation. WIA Section 309(e)(2) requires states to consult with
customers about the relevance of the LMI collected and disseminated, including
employers; WIBs; education agencies; and others. ETA does not prescribe how grantees
consult customers, and methods can include focus groups, surveys, crowd-sourcing,
Webinars, listening sessions, customer satisfaction assessments, and/or other methods
considered appropriate by the grantee. Grantees must document these consultations in
their grant file and annual performance report.
c. Data collection and research methodology. All data collection activities must conform
to BLS technical standards and methodologies, and if they do not, the grantee must
document a defensible rationale. Information used in reports must 1) be based in part on
needs identified through customer consultations and product assessments; and 2) come
from credible sources that meet professional standards. Multiple sources must be used,
except when the report is based upon a single survey. Sources must be clearly referenced
and/or footnoted.
d. Publication requirements. In order to maximize the availability of LMI-WI products,
grantees must post grant-funded products, reports, and workforce information on their
Web sites in a readily accessible manner (unless otherwise indicated), and meet standard
Federal accessibility requirements (www.section508.gov). To meet this criterion,
grantees may use WIGS funding to develop, maintain, improve, and/or host LMI-WI Web
sites and other electronic delivery systems.
e. Information technology (IT) specifications. To maximize its usefulness, any IT system
or application developed with WIGS is to adhere to industry-standard, open architecture
principles with documentation and software made available for use by other organizations
for Federal governmental purposes.
7. Application for Federal Assistance, Recordkeeping and Reporting Requirements.
a. Application forms. States must submit an SF 424 (Application for Federal Assistance)
and SF 424A (Budget Information) to apply for this grant (see both “Action Requested”
below and Attachment 2 for deadlines and other requirements). ETA regional offices
review and approve WIGS applications. Following regional office approval, the ETA
Grant Officer issues a Notice of Obligation (NOO).
b. Other standard forms and files. ETA requires grantees to complete ETA Form 9130
quarterly financial reports, and to sign an annual funding agreement with ETA which
includes grantee assurances and certifications. In addition, grantees must maintain their
internal grant files in electronic form, and make these available upon request to ETA.
c. Expenditures. By accepting WIGS funding, a state agrees to fulfill all work specified in
this guidance. The grant performance period spans July 1, 2013 to June 30, 2014; ETA
expects grantees to expend WIGS funds during this period. Grantees may request an
alternative schedule from their ETA regional office, but must expend the funds within a
three-year period by June 30, 2016, or the funds will be returned to the U.S. Treasury.
During the performance period, the grantee and the ETA regional office may jointly
adjust planned expenditures within the state’s allotment. The ETA Grant Officer may
reallocate grant funds within the ETA region if grantees’ 1) expenditures and obligations
are substantially below the forecasted levels; or 2) fail to complete required deliverables.
All WIGS expenditures must support the required and allowable activities, and conform
to "reasonable," "necessary," and "allocable" costs specified in 2 CFR 225. WIGS cannot
be used to supplant funding from other Federal or state sources.
d. Annual performance report. Grantees must submit an annual performance report to
their ETA regional office that summarizes all grantee activities, and lists the core
deliverables and activities shown below, in the order indicated.
i. Workforce information database (WIDb)
ii. Industry and occupational projections
iii. Annual economic analysis and other reports
iv. Customer consultations
v. Activities undertaken to meet customer needs
vi. New tools and resources
vii. Efforts to create and support partnerships and collaborations
viii. Activities to leverage LMI-WI funding
ix. Recommendations to ETA for changes and improvements to WIGS requirements
8. Additional Resources. The Workforce Information Council’s (WIC) LMI Products and
Customer Analysis tool can showcase state LMI-WI or research entity products and tools.
Using pre-formatted spreadsheets, states can easily categorize their products and tools,
identify the Web site location, and record information on views and downloads. By cross-
referencing these tables with WIC’s Customer Consultation Study Group product-customer
matrix, states can better identify under-served customers and important unaddressed topics.
WIC’s reports and tools can be accessed at http://www.workforceinfocouncil.org/library.asp.
9. Action Requested. ETA requests that state workforce administrators transmit this guidance
to the appropriate state workforce agency (SWA) office(s) and the state WIB. The relevant
state office should submit to the ETA Regional Administrator an original and one copy of the
PY 2013 grant application package, which must include a 1) transmittal letter; 2) SF 424
(Application for Federal Assistance); and 3) SF 424A (Budget Information). The transmittal
letter must be signed by either 1) the governor or 2) both the SWA administrator and the state
WIB chairperson. The states must also submit the SF 424 to the Grants.gov Web site.
10. Inquiries. For questions on grant requirements and the statement of work, contact the
appropriate ETA regional office. For financial management questions, contact the ETA
regional office; Grants Specialist Sharon Carter at [email protected]; or Grant Officer
Thomas Martin at [email protected] or (202) 693-2989.
