IV. LEADERSHIP
The UI Code Section 14202 describes the mandatory composition of Local
Boards. The change calls for at least 15% of local board members to be
representatives of labor organizations unless the local labor federation fails to
nominate members. How will the WDBCCC ensure compliance?
Our Board is comprised of 51% private sector members. In addition, we have all of
the mandated partners, community-based organizations, including those that serve
veterans and those with disabilities. We have two economic development entities
represented, and have added both higher education and K-12. To meet the
requirements under Senate Bill 293, we have discussed labor representation with our
local Central Labor Council and referrals will be made from that entity. Discussion
included the process for nomination, review, and appointment which is consistent
with the appointment for all other members of the Board. We presently have two
labor representatives.
The UI Code section 14230 describes the services that must be available through
California's One Stop Career Centers. Among those services are training services
which must be "made available to individuals who have met the requirements for
intensive services and who are unable to obtain or retain employment through
intensive services." Additionally, each board shall develop a policy for identifying
individuals who, because of their skills or experience, should be referred immediately
to training services. This policy, along with the methods for referral of individuals
between the one-stop operators and the one-stop partners for appropriate services and
activities, shall be contained in the memorandum of understanding (MOU), between
the local board and its one- stop partners.
S. Staff has attached a copy of the MOU with two changes. One address the referral
policy among mandated partners and the second change addresses the policy for
direct referral to training for select individuals. Also attached are copies of the
signed addendum to the MOU. Attachments: MOU and signed MOU addendums

SUBJECT: Addendum to Policies Governing ITAs and OJTs SPECIAL FILING: X
The purpose of this Workforce Board Bulletin is to issue this Workforce Investment Area's Policy
addendum to WAB#04-03, Policies Governing ITAs and OJTs. The present policy addresses
duration and limits for ITAs and OJTs. The addendum addresses market rate, and any additional
factors to consider in final determination s on issuance of ITAs.
This policy addresses changes to the UI code: UC Code section 14230 (a)(5), Section 14206 (h),
and in WIA 1 34(d)4()(A)(iii) and 20 CFR Section 663.310.(c)..
Policy
It is the policy of the Workforce Development Board of Contra Costa (WDB) that it will review
training vendors costs yearly to determine if any specific vendor is charging a rate that exceeds the
regional average ( market rate) for that specific type and duration of training. Should there be
more than a 10% deviation from the mean equivalent training vendor cost in the region, the Board
will publish a list that would require prior approval consistent with the policy referenced in #1,
WAB # 04-03.
It is expected that training will be in demand occupations as defined by review of labor market
data that indicates there are available jobs in the occupation being considered. Should there be
little or no local or regional demand but significant demand outside the local area and region, and
should the participant be willing and likely to relocate, training and related services may be
offered.
The Board has adopted a Sector Strategy in working with local business. Future discussions may
include the consideration of targeting some training funding to support high wage high grown and
demand occupations within our region. However, at this time, the Board has not set up additional
factors for consideration in making a final decision on individual training accounts. Rather, the
Board has empowered its Operator to review in partnership with the customer, labor market

9.RAPID RESPONSE.........❑
The purpose of this Workforce Administrative Bulletin is to transmit the "Policies Governing ITA's
and OJT's"— as approved by the Contra Costa County Workforce Investment Board at its meeting of
November 20, 2000.
This guideline ensures a standardized policy for front line staff in the issuance of funds for training in
each of the EASTBAY Works One-Stop centers in Contra Costa, excluding Richmond and is very
closely aligned with the policies of other workforce areas in the East Bay. This builds on the strengths
of the system to date and ensures that basic service expectations of those requiring additional training
are met in a fairly consistent way in whichever center they choose to receive services. It is
anticipated that this consistency will discourage "shopping" among centers and across workforce
investment areas to secure more generous ITA (Individual Training Account) or OJT (On-the Job
Training) funding.
Policies Governing ITA's and OJT's
Approved by the Workforce Investment Board of Contra Costa County
1. ITA's will be capped/limited to $5,000 in a two-year period.
Under special circumstances, on a case-by-case basis and with proper justification a counselor
could request a waiver to exceed $5,000 from the One-Stop Operations Manager (signed off by
the Site Coordinator).
2. While cost is lower at public training institutions, customer circumstances require case
managers to provide those seeking education and training with assistance in finding the best
match to ensure successful learning. Therefore, public training should always be considered
and case managers must review training options that best will meet the learning needs of each
individual. Thus, there is heavy reliance on the professional skills of the case manager.
Maximum training time will be 2 years.
3. OJT's will be limited to $5,000 or 520 hours, whichever occurs first.
A. Under special circumstances, on a case-by-case basis, with proper justification a counselor
could request a waiver to exceed $5,000 from the One-Stop Operations Manager (signed off
by the Site Coordinator).

SUBJECT: Direct Training Referrals SPECIAL FILING: X
The purpose of this Workforce Board Bulletin is to issue this Workforce Investment Area's Policy
regarding the pathway for those unable to retrain employment through intensive services.
Generally, the triage for most individuals coming into the One-Stop Centers is to receive core
services, followed by intensive services, and then be deemed appropriate for receipt of training
services.
Policy
Certain individuals who have been dislocated may be determined to not receive benefit from
intensive services and may move directly to appropriate training services thus bypassing
additional intensive services. If the results of appropriate assessment- both formal and observed-
indicate that an individual will not benefit from additional typical intensive services, operational
staff may at their discretion, determine a training plan for that individual that essentially "fast
tracks" the steps between initial intensive service delivery and training referral.
This policy addresses changes to the UI Code section 14230.
If you have any questions regarding this bulletin, please contact Jennifer Mitchell 925-646-5630.
