Rating

What This Rating Means

PERFORMING
Adequate

This rating describes a program that needs to set more ambitious goals, achieve better results, improve accountability or strengthen its management practices.
  • The program has performance measures and clear goals. For example, the program measures the percentage of participants placed in competitive employment and has a goal of placing 63 percent of participants for 2005.
  • Activities under this program are duplicative of allowable activities under the larger Vocational Rehabilitation State Grants program, which serves the same target populations and provides similar services.
  • The program is not able to compare its performance against other job training programs due to the grantees' difficulty in collecting comparable employment data. The Department is conducting an implementation study to assess the capacity of program grantees to collect and report comparable employment data.

Improvement Plan

About Improvement Plans

We are taking the following actions to improve the performance of the program:

  • Working with Congress to eliminate the program.
  • Improving grantee data collection and reporting to allow comparison with other job training programs.
  • Improving use and transparency of performance data to manage the program, including posting summary analyses and key data on the web.
