Departments Of Labor and Education Announce Eleven States are Eligible to Apply for WIA Incentive Grants Based on PY 2007 Performance
The Departments of Labor and Education have announced that eleven states are eligible to apply for incentive award grants authorized by section 503 of the Workforce Investment Act.
The eleven States must submit their applications within forty-five days.
Due to the lack of availability of PY 2007 performance data under the Carl D. Perkins Vocational and Technical Education Act of 1998 (Perkins III), the two Departments did not consider states' performance levels under Perkins in determining incentive grants eligibility.)
The May 11, 2009 FEDERAL REGISTER provides the full background and lists the eligible States.
