FY 2003 Performance Goal: | Continue development of the agency-wide Enterprise Information Management System (EIMS) to capture the grants life cycle process from initiation to closeout. |
Indicator: | EIMS will be used to effectively manage ETA's grants process. |
Data Source: | Programmatic financial and participant reports submitted by grantees via the Web; internal data generated by automated tracking and processing systems. |
Baseline: | EIMS as it exists today. |
Comment: | EIMS will continue to evolve as the Information back-bone of ETA. All ETA grants will be tracked through the system from inception until closeout. Performance and financial data will be integrated in order to develop a more comprehensive picture relating to the success of ETA programs. Output reports will be readily accessible and Web-based, with a succession of charts and tables available that will begin with an ETA-wide presentation, and then allow a drill-down 'functionality' to specific program and grantee level reporting. An on-line output reporting function will be developed for the grantee community, providing a comparative analysis capability. EIMS will continue to integrate information from other systems and external data sources. (This goal will be refined.) |
ETA's continuing goal will be to maintain effective financial management practices within the agency for budgeting, accounting and financial reporting that support program delivery, resource management and the safeguarding of assets under our control. The success of our efforts will be measured primarily by the opinions of our auditors and internal reviews completed by the agency.

Baseline: | This is a new goal. FY 2002 will constitute the baseline year for this measure. Because there is no comparable baseline, this measure will be reviewed for appropriateness as performance data becomes available. |
Comment: | In FY 2002, a survey will be conducted of Workforce Investment Areas to determine the mix of service provider applicants including the percentage that are faith- and community-based organizations. This survey will also determine strategies for information gathering. |
Means & Strategies:
Performance Goal 1.1A | Increase the employment, retention, and earnings of individuals registered under the WIA adult program |
Performance Results |
PY 2000: The goal was exceeded, based on WIA Quarterly Performance
Reports. Of those registered under the WIA adult program and
employed in the first quarter after exit, 78% were employed
in the third quarter after program exit, with increased average
earnings of $3,684.

Data Source | Workforce Investment Act Standardized Record Data (WIASRD) included in the Enterprise Information Management System (EIMS); UI Wage Records |
Baseline | There is no prior experience with this WIA indicator, which is based on the use of UI wage records. PY 2000, the first full year of WIA implementation, constitutes the baseline year for this measure. The performance measure is derived from the agreed upon levels of performance for all States. These measures will be regularly reviewed for appropriateness and rigor as performance data becomes available. |
Comment | The current FY 1999-2004 Strategic Plan includes the new WIA goal based upon a weighted average of negotiated levels of performance for all States. The goals for PY 2000, PY 2001 and PY 2002 stated in this plan also reflect these negotiated levels for all States. The PY 2003 goal has not yet been negotiated with the States, so the goal reflected is preliminary and continues the trend established by the PY 2000 - 2002 goals. |
Performance Goal 1.1B | Increase the retention and earnings of Welfare-to-Work participants placed in unsubsidized employment |
Performance Results |
FY 2001: The goal was not achieved. Of those Welfare-to-Work
(WtW) participants placed in unsubsidized employment, 49% remained
in the workforce for six months with 53% average earnings increase
by the second consecutive quarter following the placement quarter

Comment | The FY 2001 data used as the baseline for the FY 2003 goal reflect revisions to WtW reporting which were implemented to improve data quality and accuracy. The FY 2003 goal reflects realistic but ambitious expectations for grantee performance, and while we do not anticipate any further changes to this goal, we will review the data submitted in FY 2002 to determine if any changes to the FY 2003 goal are appropriate. |
Performance Goal 1.1C | Improve the outcomes for job seekers and employers who receive public labor exchange services. |
Performance Results |
PY 2000: Achieved for all indicators:
|
Indicator | PY
2003:
|
Data Source | State reports, Unemployment Insurance wage records, and America's Job Bank Center Reports |
Baseline | During
PY 2001, ETA will transition to a new Labor Exchange Performance
Measurement system. A baseline will be established for the entered
employment rate and retention rate goals based on PY 2001 results.
Baseline data currently do not exist for the job seeker entered
employment and employment retention goals. FY 2000 (PY1999) data will be the baseline for job openings listed. The baseline was established at 51,000 for the number of new employers registered with America's Job Bank in PY 1999. A baseline will be established in PY 2002 (based on PY 2001 results) for the percentage of Unemployment Insurance claimants who enter employment with a new employer by the end of the second quarter following registration. Baseline data currently do not exist. |
Comment | *
The indicators for job seekers were revised to be consistent
with the new WIA program. ETA is undergoing a transition to
a new labor exchange performance measurement system. Currently,
there is no statistically valid baseline data for these new
measures. Targets reflect very limited test experience with
a few volunteer states. PY 2003 will be similar to PY 2002 in
that the total number of applicants is likely to remain smaller
based on the new methodology for registration.
Using the limited test data and some projections of the impact of the formula change, the goals presented in PY 2002 offer a best estimate at benchmarks. The proposed increase for PY 2003 is also speculative, but based on the likelihood that increased services available to customers through One-Stop systems will begin to positively impact the outcomes for a greater percentage of job seekers. The Employment Retention Indicator is a brand new one for the Labor Exchange and has not been a program focus to date. The initial target of 76% was chosen because it mirrored the WIA Title I program target and has no basis in actual experience - experience that Title I programs have had for years in JTPA. The target for PY 2002 of 70% was based on the limited data that was produced in the pilot states. The PY 2003 increase to 72% was set with the idea that some improvement should be expected as States continue to have better tools with which to effectively match job seekers and employers so as to lead to successful long term employment. It should be noted that the Labor Exchange has no capacity to support follow-up services to job seekers who enter employment, which could lead to an improved retention rate. ETA will develop a new methodology for measuring continuous improvement relative to increased listing of job openings that is adjusted to reflect changes in the economy. |

new four-year strategic goals it has established for Apprenticeship: |
-New businesses by 50%; and -New apprentices by 60%.
*DOL will determine earnings gains by calculating the average difference between starting and ending wage. |
Performance Goal 1.1E | Increase the capacity and quality of One-Stop system services for people with disabilities who are registered in the workforce investment area(s) receiving Work Incentive Grants |
Performance Results |
PY 2000: The goal was achieved. Grants were awarded to 23 State
or local recipients.
FY 1999-2002: N/A |
Indicator | PY
2003:
PY 2001: Annual reporting of WIA data in December 2001 will establish the baseline for performance of the Work Incentive Grant program. This will be the first year of reporting under the WIA as well as the first year of performance under this new grant program. PY 2000: The new Work Incentive Grant program will be implemented by September 30, 2000, with plans for 20 to 40 awards in State and local areas to enhance services for people with disabilities in the One-Stop Center environment. PY 1999: N/A |
Data Source | Workforce Investment Act Standardized Record Data (WIASARD) included in the Enterprise Information Management System (EIMS) from State and/or local areas receiving Work Incentive Grants |
Baseline | New Goal. The baseline will be the number of people with disabilities, as of the beginning of PY 2001 (7/1/01), registered in the workforce area(s) that receive Work Incentive Grants, the number of those registered who are employed in the quarter after exit, retention in the third quarter and wage increase. |
Comment | The Work Incentive Grant program is directed to systemic change for people with disabilities obtaining services under WIA. Therefore, the first goal indicator is the percent of people with disabilities registered in WIA programs in the areas that have received the grants. The remaining three goal indicators are similar to those for the WIA Adult program, but they specifically target people with disabilities. As there has been no experience with these performance indicators for people with disabilities, the indicators for PY 2002 and PY 2003 will be reviewed for appropriateness and adjusted, if necessary, once the actual baseline has been determined. |
Performance Goal 1.1F | Increase employment and positive outcomes of adults registered under the Indian and Native American program |
Performance Results |
PY 2000: Preliminary data are expected March 2002.
PY 1999: 51.9% were employed at program termination and 83.4% had positive outcomes at program termination. (These performance results are for the last year of JTPA.) |
Indicator | PY
2003:
PY 1999-2000: N/A |
Data Source | Grantee Records included in the Enterprise Information Management System (EIMS) |
Baseline | The baseline for employment is the JTPA 53.8% entered employment rate, and the baseline for positive outcomes is the JTPA Positive Termination Rate of 84%. |
Comment | This goal was revised with the passage of WIA. "Positive Outcomes" is a general term used to indicate the successful completion of planned WIA section 166 program activities, whether it involves obtaining unsubsidized employment, completing a work experience assignment, or attaining a training or education certificate or diploma. |
Performance Goal 1.1G | Increase employment opportunities for senior citizens participating in the Senior Community Service Employment Program |
Performance Results |
PY 2000: This goal was achieved. 33.8% were placed in unsubsidized
employment.
PY 1999: This goal was achieved. 36.5% were placed in unsubsidized employment. |
Indicator | PY
2003:
|
Data Source | SCSEP reporting system |
Baseline | The baseline is based on PY 1997 SCSEP enrollee unsubsidized employment rate of 20%. |
Comment | The
primary objective of the Senior Community Service Employment
Program (SCSEP) is to provide part-time community service opportunities
for low-income persons age 55 or older. The unsubsidized placement
goal is an important program goal that represents both a regulatory
requirement and a grant condition.
The Older American Act Amendments of 2000 legislated new performance measures for the SCSEP. New performance indicators and applicable levels of performance will be established by the Secretary in consultation with grantees and others during 2002 and 2003. The performance indicators found in the legislation are: placements, number served, community services provided, and customer satisfaction. |
Performance Goal 1.1H | Increase customer satisfaction with services received from workforce investment activities in connection with the One-Stop delivery system |

PY 2000:
PY 1999: N/A |
Indicator | PY
2003:
|
Data Source | WIA State reports included in the Enterprise Information Management System (EIMS) |
Baseline | The goal was based upon limited grantee experience gathering participant customer satisfaction information, including pilot projects. |
Comment | The indicator is an index of participant and employer customer satisfaction based upon three questions that will be asked of a sample of WIA program exiters and three questions that will be asked of a sample of employers. The index is based upon the American Customer Satisfaction Index. The current FY 1999-2004 Strategic Plan includes the new WIA goal based upon a weighted average of negotiated levels of performance for all States. The goals for PY 2000, PY 2001 and PY 2002 stated in this plan also reflect these negotiated levels for all States. The PY 2003 goal has not yet been negotiated with the States, so the goal reflected is preliminary and continues the trend established by the PY 2000 - 2002 goals. |
Performance Goal 1.2A | Increase entrance and retention of youth registered under the WIA youth program in education or employment |
Performance Results |
PY 2000: The goal was substantially achieved. Forty-six percent
of the 14-18 year-old youth were either employed, in advanced
training, post-secondary education, military service or apprenticeships
in the third quarter after program exit. Seventy-seven percent
of the 19-21 year-old youth will be employed in the third quarter
after program exit.
PY 1999: N/A |
Indicator | PY
2003: 52% of the 14-18 year-old youth who enter the program without a diploma or equivalent, will attain a secondary school diploma or equivalent by the first quarter after exit; 65% of the 19-21 year-old youth will be employed in the first quarter after exit; and78% of the 19-21 year-old youth employed in the first quarter after exit will be employed in the third quarter after program exit.

Data Source | State Workforce Investment Act reports included in the Enterprise Information System (EIMS) and Unemployment Insurance wage records |
Baseline | Younger
Youth Indicator: Preliminary annual report data from Program
Year 2000 show a performance of 41% for the younger youth diploma
or equivalent attainment rate. The baseline for future goals
will be reestablished using a combination of final Program Year
2000 data and preliminary Program Year 2001 data.
Older Youth Indicator: Preliminary annual report data from Program Year 2000 show a performance of 65% for the older youth entered employment rate and a performance of 77% for the older youth employment retention rate. The baseline for future goals will be reestablished using a combination of final Program Year 2000 data and preliminary Program Year 2001 data. |
Comment | The goals for Program Years 2002 and 2003 are based on limited data available at the end of Program Year 2000 and negotiated levels for all states. It is also important to keep in mind past experience in youth employment and training programs that shows youth traditionally have a harder time staying attached to the workforce than adults. In addition, The Workforce Investment Act encourages a focus on providing longer-term services to the hardest-to-serve, out-of-school youth, which can be the most challenging group to keep attached to the workforce. Therefore, the goals for Program Years 2002 and 2003 may be revised based on actual performance in Program Years 2000, 2001 and 2002 respectively and/or if states renegotiate levels based on actual performance data and other economic factors affecting performance. |
Performance Goal 1.2B | Increase participation, retention, and earnings of Job Corps graduates in employment and education |
Performance Results |
PY 2000: The goal was substantially met. 91% of Job Corps graduates
got jobs or pursued education at an average hourly wage of $7.97.
67% still had a job or were pursing education after 90 days.
PY 1999: The goal was achieved: 88.3% of Job Corps graduates entered employment or enrolled in education. For those placed in jobs, the average hourly wage was $7.49. 71.3% of graduates continued to be employed or enrolled in education 90 days after their initial placement date. |
Indicator | PY
2003:
PY 2002 PY 2001: PY 2000: PY 1999: |
Data Source | Job Corps Management Information System |
Baseline | The educational attainment goal is based upon those students who did not have a high school diploma or General Educational Development (GED) upon entry into Job Corps; Program Year 2001 results serve as the baseline. There is no program data available for the six-month retention and wage goals. The expectation of performance is based on analysis of available information, which pertains to 90 days' retention. Program Year 2001 results also serve as the baseline for these goals. |
Comment | Job Corps targets severely disadvantaged youth with a variety of barriers to self-sufficiency, including deficiencies in education and job skills. To achieve the enhanced quality of placement and job retention required by the Workforce Investment Act, in Program Year 2003, Job Corps will focus resources on program improvements that enhance the full Job Corps experience for students, from reinforced outreach and admission strategies and center program effectiveness to intensified center and post-center career development support. |

Baseline | Younger and Older Youth Indicators: The baselines for these indicators will be established based on performance levels negotiated with Youth Opportunity Grant program sites for Program Year 2001 as well as Program Year 2001 performance data. |
Comment | Because the program is still in its early stages, very little outcome data for Program Year 2000 is available. Therefore, the Program Year 2002 and 2003 goals are based on negotiated performance levels with the grantees and preliminary data from the Workforce Investment Act formula funded youth program. These goals may be revised based on actual performance in Program Years 2001 and 2002 and other economic factors affecting performance. |

Comment | At present, State Workforce Agencies (SWAs) first process applications for permanent alien certification to ensure absence of adverse impact. ETA regional offices complete the review and then they go to the Immigration and Naturalization Service. SWAs do not report processing times. Starting in FY 2003, ETA's regional offices are responsible for the entire review of applications. The new regional data system will enable tracking of processing times and age of unprocessed cases. |
