Abstract | This report describes and assesses the actual Job Training Partnership Act (JTPA) program that is implemented. It covers the initial operating period, the nine months from October 1, 1983, through June 30, 1984, of Title II-A, Training Services for the Disadvantaged. Chapter I is an introduction. Chapter II discusses the basic configuration of the JTPA program: its structure, training activities, services, contractors, participants, achievements, and concerns. Chapter III examines the new relationships established between public and private sectors at both the local and state levels. Chapter IV discusses policies and practices at the state and local levels relating to the legislation's mandate for more effective coordination between JTPA and other public agencies with an interest in employment and training services. It provides an assessment of the coordination achieved with several major public institutions--education, employment service, economic development, and welfare--and describes the issues facing further attempts to satisfy this aspect of the legislation. Chapter V examines the roles and activities undertaken by the federal and state governments as the primary overseers of JTPA programming and the degree to which the oversight role they played influenced local programming choices. Chapter VI summarizes the report. Instruments and a survey report are appended. (YLB) |
