WIA Planning Information
Updated on: September 5, 2014
In the past, the data for the Workforce Investment Act (WIA) Planning Information Packets were gathered from a variety of sources and packaged by county to aid local organizations in identifying target group needs and in making appropriate resource allocations for employment and training activities. The EDD no longer packages this data, but rather, it provides links to the data sources.
