Workforce Preparation Resources
Workforce preparation is an essential component of integrated education and training programs (IET), and it is also a valuable addition to any adult education course offering. As many classes and training programs transition to distance learning models, workforce preparation activities become increasingly important to support learne
rs as they become more independent and self-directed in their learning.
Workforce preparation activities, as defined by the Workforce Innovation and Opportunity Act (WIOA), refer to skills and competencies that are not only useful in the workplace, but are fundamental life skills that include critical thinking, digital skills, self-management, working with others, and understanding information and systems.
See the Workforce Preparation Resources page for instructional and planning documents for all phases of career pathways, workplace literacy, and integrated education and training planning and implementation.
