This issue brief provides guidance on what it will take to develop a first-class performance management system that allows states to collect and report accurate data under the Workforce Innovation and Opportunity Act legislation, which modifies Workforce Investment Act measures.

Under WIOA, the U.S. Department of Education’s Adult Education and Family Literacy program and the Vocational Rehabilitation program are integrated into the federal labor accountability system, along with the WIA adult, dislocated, and youth programs; and the Wagner-Peyser Employment Service program.

This brief provides recommendations to help federal, state, and local agencies ensure that their performance management systems support accountability and can help them manage their programs. It also provides guidance to help federal and state labor and education agencies develop and implement the new systems to generate quality performance data at a reasonable cost.
