RECOMMENDATION
That the Board AUTHORIZE the Director, Contra Costa County Private Industry
Council, to conduct contract negotiations with Worldwide Educational Services,
Inc., to provide a Worker Assistance Center training component for
approximately four hundred (400) dislocated workers for the period beginning
January 1, 1984 and ending September 25, 1984, for the maximum amount of
$132,000.
BACKGROUND
On September 20, 1983 the Board authorized its Chairman to execute a JTPA Title
III/Dislocated Worker Contract (County #19-8282-0) with California Employment
Development Department, for the period beginning September 26, 1983 and ending
September 25, 1984, in the amount of $200,000 in Emergency Jobs Bill funds.
On September 19, 1983 the Private Industry Council of Contra Costa County voted
to negotiate a performance-based contract with California Employment Development
Department to provide orientation, skills assessment, on-the-job training, job
search training, and job placement assistance to dislocated workers residing in
the County's Service Delivery Area (SDA). The Director, Contra Costa County
Private Industry Council, has been notified that a state hiring freeze will
prevent execution of the contract by EDD.
The Private Industry Council of Contra Costa County, in its meeting of
September 19, 1983, authorized the Director, Contra Costa County Private
Industry Council, to negotiate with existing JTPA regional contractors if
negotiations with California Employment Development Department were
unsuccessful. After meeting with all three JTPA regional contractors, mutual
agreement was reached by the Private Industry Council Director and
representatives of the JTPA regional contractors that negotiations should be
pursued with Worldwide Educational Services, Inc.
