GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS
Each state that receives an allotment under WIA section 127 (youth activities) or
Section 132 (adult and dislocated worker activities) of the WIA of 1998 must prepare
and submit an Annual Report to the Secretary in accordance with WIA sections
136(d)(1) and 185(d).
The Department of Labor, in consultation with states and other partners, has developed
a strategy for the Annual Report that is designed to meet these requirements and also
provides states the flexibility to showcase their unique programs, strategies and
accomplishments. The Annual Report will emulate the Private Sector’s Report to
Stockholders. Just as a Report to Stockholders presents a company portrait painted in
a particular style of the corporate culture, states are encouraged to design their Annual
Reports to stakeholders in a manner that makes use of graphics and other
communication devices so that the report highlights the programs in the most
advantageous manner to all stakeholders, including Congress, Governors, state
legislators, workforce investment boards and the public. For example, states may want
to include success stories that focus attention on successful programming for
participants, employers and communities. States may also consider including messages
from the Governor, information about State Workforce Investment Board members,
market analysis, strategies for improvement, and analysis of programs’ effects on major
industries in the reports.
There is great flexibility in the contents of the annual report narrative, but there are
three sets of information that are required elements for each states’ annual report, as
described in WIA section 136:
1) Performance data on the core and customer satisfaction measures, including
progress of local areas in the state in achieving local performance measures;
2) Information on the status of state evaluation activities; and
3) Information on the cost of workforce investment activities relative to the effect of
the activities on the performance of participants.
More information on these requirements is provided in Section III below. States should
be aware that the Secretary utilizes the Annual Reports to fulfill the requirement to
disseminate state-by-state comparisons of the information (WIA section 136(d)(3)(B)).
Additionally, this information is used to determine states’ eligibility for incentive grants
(WIA section 503) or whether the Secretary will impose a sanction based on
performance failure (WIA section 136(g)).
Performance data reported in the WIA Annual Report must be comprised of
information provided by each state from their individual Workforce Investment Act
Standardized Record Data (WIASRD) files through matching client information with
the employment outcome information obtained from Unemployment Insurance (UI)
and other administrative wage records or from other supplemental data sources.
Therefore, ETA requires that performance information received from states on the WIA
Annual Report be based upon the submission of WIASRD files (sec. 136(f) and 185).
The WIA Annual Report must be complete and accurate (WIA section 185 (29 USC
2935).

COVERED PROGRAMS
The WIA Annual Report will cover participants who receive services financially assisted
by formula or statewide reserve funds under the following ETA programs:
•
•
•

WIA Adult Program
WIA Dislocated Worker Program (including dislocated workers participating
in programs funded under WIA section 134(a)(2)(A)(ii) – rapid response
additional assistance)
WIA Youth Program

Performance information about participants who only receive services financially
assisted by National Emergency Grants (NEGs) will not be included, since this
information will be obtained through the WIA Quarterly Report (ETA 9090). However,
performance information about participants who received services financially assisted
by WIA Title IB and NEGs are included in the Annual Report. In addition, WIA
statewide activities that are included in the Annual Report are those statewide activities
that involve the enrollment of individuals eligible to receive WIA Title I-B services (e.g.,
adult, dislocated worker, or youth). Conversely, if state or local activities do not involve
the enrollment of individuals to receive services, performance information is not
included in the WIA Annual Report. Examples of such exceptions include activities
where (a) the state is conducting a statewide activity that does not involve direct
services (e.g., research or evaluation), or (b) the statewide activity is structured to
provide services that are highly specialized, such as in a pilot or demonstration activity
(e.g., incumbent worker training, project for chemically dependent TANF recipients).

III. ANNUAL REPORT SPECIFICATIONS
The Annual Report reflects performance outcome information that becomes available
by the time the Annual Report for the program year is due to ETA. Appendix A
explains the applicable time periods that states should use when preparing performance
information for the WIA Annual Report. The reporting format for the WIA Annual
Report can be found under Appendix B. Performance information received from the
states on Tables B through M (excluding all program participant counts and exiter
counts of self-service participants) of the WIA Annual Report must be based on the
annual submission of individual WIASRD files.
At a minimum, the Annual Report must be submitted in accordance with the following
guidelines:
•
•

Indicate the name of your state and the date on which the Annual Report was
submitted electronically to ETA.
On the electronic version of the report, include the name and title of the
authorized official of the governor responsible for certifying that the data
submitted is complete and accurate.

NARRATIVE SECTION

A.

This portion of the narrative is a discussion of the cost of workforce investment
activities relative to the effect of the activities on the performance of the
participants as required in WIA section 136(d)(2)(C). In addressing this item,
states may want to include information from their strategic plans that highlight
innovative service delivery strategies, including program activities that support
high growth/high demand industries, the outcomes expected from these activities
as well as the actual outcomes for their major customer segments. States may
indicate actual federal outlays for these selected activities, if the information is
available.
States must explain how the allocation of resources for adults, dislocated workers,
and youth activities affected the outcomes. For adults and dislocated workers the
activities that states may wish to address is core, intensive and training services.
For youth, states should include information about front-end costs (e.g., intake,
assessment and case management) and aggregated direct service costs for the ten
youth program elements described in WIA section 129(c)(2).

B.

This portion of the narrative is a description of state evaluations of workforce
investment activities (if any) is required by WIA section 136(d)(1), including:
•
•
•

The questions the evaluation will/did address;
A description of the evaluation's methodology; and
Information about the timing of feedback and deliverables.

The required state evaluations of workforce investment activities are described in
WIA section 136(e) and include evaluation studies of workforce investment
activities conducted under WIA title I-B to establish, implement, and use methods
for continuous improvement in the efficiency and effectiveness of the statewide
workforce investment system in improving employability for job seekers and
competitiveness for employers.
II.

TABLE SECTION
The reporting format and specifications for preparing performance calculations
for tables A through O of the WIA Annual Report can be found under Appendix
B and Appendix C. States do not need to separately report the performance
information submitted online within the body of the Annual Report narratives.
Special Instruction: The youth common performance measures contained
within Table H.1 are for reporting purposes only. States will not be required to
establish negotiated performance levels nor be held accountable through the
WIA accountability system. States should ensure that a “null or blank” for
each measure is placed under the Negotiated Performance Levels column in
Table H.1. until further guidance is issued by the Department.

Reporting Specifications for Tables A through O
Table A: Workforce Investment Act Customer Satisfaction Results
Enter the following information separately for program participants and employers.
Additional information about Customer Satisfaction Indicators is available on ETA’s website
at http://www.doleta.gov/performance. Customer satisfaction results are based on exiters
from the calendar year.
Table A. CUSTOMER SATISFACTION (PARTICIPANTS AND EMPLOYERS)
Record the level of performance negotiated between the State and USDOL.
Negotiated Performance
Level
Record the actual performance levels on the American Customer
Actual Performance
Satisfaction Index (ACSI).
Level
Number of Surveys
Completed

Record the number of surveys with answers to each of the three required
questions.

Number of Customers
Eligible for the Survey

Record the number of participants/employers in the group (sample frame)
from which the customer sample was drawn. This information is needed to
aggregate customer satisfaction across all States.

Number of Customers
Included in the Sample

Record the representative subset of participants/employers eligible for the
surveys that were selected for interviews. If no sampling is used by the
state, the sample size equals the number eligible for the survey.

Response Rate

Record the response rate by dividing the number of completed surveys by
the number included in the sample.

States using the ACSI methodology to measure Local Board performance are not required to
conduct separate customer satisfaction surveys to obtain State level results. In situations
where a single sampling rate is used throughout the State, the Local Board ACSI results on a
customer satisfaction measure may simply be aggregated to obtain State level results.
In situations where different sampling rates exist for the Local Boards in a State, each Local
Board's ACSI score will need to be weighted before aggregating the outcomes to obtain results
that are representative of the State overall. The information needed to compute these
weighted scores are the sample frames for each Local Board in the State and each Local
Board's ACSI score.

OMB No. 1205-0420

12

Expires: 08/31/2009

EMPLOYMENT AND TRAINING ADMINISTRATION

To illustrate how these weights are derived, consider the following example:

The weighted score would be calculated for each Local Board by multiplying the ACSI score
by the number in the Local Board sample frame. These weighted Local Board scores would
then be totaled and divided by the sum of the sampling frame sizes for all Local Boards in the
State to obtain a State ACSI.
Using the figures provided in the above example, the ACSI scores for the State are calculated
in the following manner:

Tables B through M: Establishing Program Performance Groups
Use the following specifications to complete the performance calculations for Tables B
through M. The chart below provides an explanation of how program participants are
classified as adults, dislocated workers, and youth for the purposes of calculating program
performance. These classifications are based upon one or more data elements contained
within the WIASRD. In order for a participant to be included in a particular program
performance group, at least one of the corresponding conditions in “Specifications” column
needs to be true. For instance, as shown in the row labeled “Adult,” if either Adult (Local
Formula) (WIASRD Element 304) = 1 or Adult (Statewide 15% Activities) (WIASRD Element
310) = 1, the participant is included in the WIA Adult performance measures.
Important Note: These funding stream specifications apply to the statewide annual
performance calculations. They do not apply to local level performance calculated for Table O
of this annual report.

It is important to note that participant records can be included in more than one WIA
performance group. Participants who are co-enrolled in multiple funding streams are
included in the calculation of the performance measures for all funding streams in which they
are enrolled. For example, a participant record could have Date of First Youth Service
populated (WIASRD Element 306) and Adult (local) (WIASRD Element 304) = 1. In this
case, the participant is included in the performance measure calculations both for youth and
for adults.

Tables B through G: WIA Adult and Dislocated Worker Performance
The following specifications provide guidance for states to calculate performance for two sets
of adults and dislocated workers who exited from WIA services during a specific reporting
period:
1. All adult and dislocated worker exiters are subject to the entered employment,
employment retention, and average earnings measures; and
2. Those adults and dislocated workers who received training services and exited are
also subject to the employment and credential rate measure.
This section outlines the mathematical formulae and data element specifications for states to
report on the following adult and dislocated worker performance measures:
Entered Employment Rate
Of those who are not employed at the date of participation:
# of participants who are employed in the first quarter (qtr) after the exit qtr
# of participants who exit during the qtr
Employment Retention Rate
Of those who are employed in the first quarter after the exit qtr:
# of participants who are employed in both the second and third qtrs after the exit qtr
# of participants who exit during the qtr
Employment and Credential Rate
Of those who receive training services:
# of participants who were employed in the first qtr after the exit qtr and received a
credential by the end of the third qtr after the exit qtr
# of participants who exit during the qtr
Average Earnings

Of those who are employed in the first, second, and third quarters after the exit
quarter:
[Total earnings in the second quarter plus total earnings in the third quarter after the
exit quarter]

Table H.1: Youth (14 – 21) Common Performance Measures
The following specifications provide guidance for states to calculate youth who received
services financially assisted by the WIA Title I-B program during a specific reporting period:
1. All youth exiters are subject to the placement in employment or education and
attainment of degree or certificate measures;
2. Out-of-school youth participants and exiters who are basic skills deficient are
subject to the Literacy and Numeracy Gains measure; and
3. Youth are those aged 14 through 21 on the date that they participate in WIA
services.
This section outlines the mathematical formulae and data element specifications for states to
report on the following youth performance measures:

Placement in Employment or Education
Of those who are not in post-secondary education or employment (including the
military) at the date of participation:
# of participants who are in employment (including the military) or enrolled in postsecondary education and/or advanced training/occupational skills training in the first
quarter (qtr) after the exit qtr
# of participants who exit during the qtr

Attainment of a Degree or Certificate
Of those enrolled in education (at the date of participation or at any point during the
program):
# of participants who attain a diploma, GED, or certificate by the end of the third qtr
after the exit qtr
# of participants who exit during the qtr

Literacy and Numeracy Gains
Of those out-of-school youth who are basic skills deficient:
# of participants who increase one or more educational functioning levels
# of participants who have completed a year in the youth program (i.e., one year from
the date of first youth program service) plus the # of participants who exit before
completing a year in the youth program

•

Section 136(d)(2)(B) for wages at entry into employment for participants in workforce
investment activities who entered employment, including the rate of wage replacement
for such participants who are dislocated workers;
Section 136(d)(2)(D) for retention and earnings received in employment 12 months after
entry into the employment;
Section 136(d)(2)(E) for individuals who received training services compared with the
performance of participants in workforce investment activities who received only services
other than training services (excluding participants who received only self-service and
informational activities); and
Section 185(d)(1)(C) for information regarding programs and activities carried out under
this title pertaining to placement for participants in nontraditional employment.

This section outlines the mathematical formula and data element specifications for states to
report on the following performance measures:
Twelve-Month Employment Retention Information
For adults and dislocated workers, use the following mathematical formula:
Of those who are employed in the first qtr after the exit qtr:
# of participants who are employed in the fourth qtr after the exit qtr
# of participants who exit during the qtr
For older youth, use the following mathematical formula:
Of those who are employed in the first qtr after the exit qtr and who are either not
enrolled in post-secondary education or advanced training in the third qtr after the
exit qtr or are employed in the first qtr after the exit qtr:
# of participants who are employed in the fourth qtr after the exit qtr
# of participants who exit during the qtr

Twelve-Month Earnings Increase/Replacement Information
For adults, use the following mathematical formula:
Of those who are employed in the first qtr after the exit qtr:
[Earnings in the third + fourth qtrs after the exit qtr] minus [Earnings in the second
+ third qtrs prior to the participation qtr]
# of participants who exit during the qtr
For dislocated workers, use the following mathematical formula:
Of those who are employed in the first qtr after the exit qtr:
[Earnings in the third + fourth qtrs after the exit qtr]
[Earnings in the second + third qtrs prior to the participation qtr]
For older youth, use the following mathematical formula:
Of those who are employed in the first qtr after the exit qtr and who are either not
enrolled in post-secondary education or advanced training in the third qtr after the
exit qtr or are employed in the first qtr after the exit qtr:
[Earnings in the third + fourth qtrs after the exit qtr] minus [Earnings in the second
+ third qtrs prior to the participation qtr]
# of participants who exit during the qtr
Placements in Non-Traditional Employment
Non-traditional employment is employment in an occupation or field of work for which
individuals of the participant’s gender comprise less than 25% of the individuals employed in
such occupation or field of work (WIA section 101(26)). This determination may be made
using either state or national data. Both males and females can be in nontraditional
employment. This information can be based on any job held after exit and only applies to
adults, dislocated workers and older youth who entered employment in the quarter after the
exit quarter.

Wages at Entered Employment
For adults, dislocated workers, and older youth, use the following mathematical formula:
Of those who are employed in the first qtr after the exit qtr
Total Earnings in the first qtr after the exit qtr
# of participants who exit during the qtr
Additional Operational Parameters:
- Individuals who are employed at participation are excluded from this measure
- Older youth in both employment and post-secondary education or advanced training in
the first quarter after exit are included in the measure.
- Older Youth who are not employed, but who are in post-secondary education or advanced
training in the first quarter after exit is excluded from this measure.
Training-Related Employment
Training-related employment is employment in which the individual uses a substantial
portion of the skills taught in the training received by the individual. This information can be
based on any job held after exit and only applies to adults, dislocated workers and older
youth who entered employment in the quarter after the exit quarter.

Table N: Cost of Program Activities
This data is required cumulatively on an accrual basis by program year.
Total Federal Spending for Adult, Dislocated Worker, and Youth Funding
(Local) Activities. Enter the total accrued expenditures (federal outlays) which are the sum
of actual cash disbursements for direct charges for goods and services, plus net increase or
decrease in amounts owed by the recipient for goods and other property received; for services
performed by employees, contractors, sub-grantees, and other payees and other amounts
becoming owed for which no current services or performance is required.
These entries should be strictly program costs which are reported on the WIA Financial
Status Report (FSR) (ETA 9076 D, E and F) (do not include administrative costs). This data
should loosely match the data submitted on the June 30 FSR. Minor variances could occur
based on the required due dates of August 15 for WIA FSR data and October 1 for the Annual
Report.
Total Federal Spending for Rapid Response Activities. Of the up to 25% Dislocated
Worker funds that a State may reserve for Statewide Rapid Response activities, enter total
accrued expenditures for the program year. The entry should closely match the entry on the
June 30 WIA FSR (ETA 9076-B) with variances that may occur due to the difference in report
due dates.
Total Federal Spending for Statewide Required Activities. In the Federal Spending
Column include only the sum of total federal outlays used for statewide required activities (up
