In response to the Workforce Innovation and Opportunity Act's (WIOA) vision, the WORK Center is taking a leadership role by broadening and strengthening the current network of partnerships. WIOA's centerpiece to build a better aligned workforce system is a more holistic approach to the programs, especially the Title I programs and the Title II adult basic education program.
