What is the WIOA Program?
The Workforce Innovation and Opportunity Act (WIOA) program is a comprehensive federal initiative designed to help job seekers, workers, and businesses in the United States. This program, established in 2014, is an amendment to the Workforce Investment Act of 1998 and serves as a cornerstone for the nation’s workforce development system. The WIOA program aims to provide a more efficient and effective workforce development system that aligns with the needs of employers and the skills of job seekers. By focusing on training, education, and employment services, the WIOA program seeks to empower individuals to secure gainful employment and advance their careers.
