Abstract | This volume reports findings of a field network study of how the Job Training Partnership Act (JTPA) was implemented in 20 states and 40 Service Delivery Areas (SDAs). Chapter 1 is an introduction. Chapter 2 describes the changing organizational and programmatic dimensions of state-level JTPA activities. Variations in the roles played by the actors are examined. Chapter 3 studies state-SDA relations. Focus of Chapter 4 is private sector involvement in JTPA. Chapter 5 discusses the targeting and selection process. Chapter 6 examines the content of training received by participants in the JTPA Title IIA programs. Chapter 7 presents a summary and analysis of findings related to youth implementation issues. Chapter 8 focuses on how the states and SDAs adapted performance standards to local conditions and on the measurement of actual SDA outcomes. Chapter 9 discusses the major features of state Title III programs: organizational arrangements and allocation strategies, sources of matching, state-level targeting, and service mix. Chapter 10 covers other Title III issues, including build-up, expenditure rates, Secretary's discretionary projects, performance standards, monitoring, and the Management Information Systems. Forms are appended. (YLB) |
