The program, known as the Customer Service Academy, consists of 10 courses, eight hours each, for a total of 80 hours of instruction throughout the 2012-2013 academic year. Through RSCCD's Corporate Training Institute, this program, taught by college faculty, will focus on interpersonal and social skills and lead to a Certificate of Completion from Rancho Santiago Community College District. Expected to enhance their personal, educational and professional lives, the subject courses include: • Customer Service • Communications • Team Building • Attitude, Values & Ethics • Time Management • Stress Management • Conflict Management • Decision Making & Problem Solving • Managing Organizational Change Following is a description of each course. 1. Customer Service - Students will explore key skills and attitudes necessary to effectively meet both internal and external customer needs ...this includes employers/colleagues and business clients respectively. Participants will be introduced to concepts and appropriate techniques for dealing with the different audiences, enhancing customer satisfaction and insuring positive communication. 2. Communication in the Workplace - Being key to customer service success, communication is critical in understanding what the customers want, when they want it, why they want it and what their expectations are. The best approach in trying to figure all this out is by means of being good listeners and communicators. This course will cover verbal and Exhibit A DO-12-1722-01 non-verbal communications as well as superior listening skills with the opportunity to practice techniques. 3. Team Building - Excellence in customer service to our external clients is often tied to how our internal customers get along and can work together. Working as a team can increase productivity, enhance project management, reduce business conflicts and create superior customer service. Students will learn the "styles" of classmates so they can work together better on projects and customer satisfaction. 4. Attitude in the Workplace - Having the right attitude has a positive impact on the workplace and our interactions with customers. Topics in this course will explore how attitudes at work positively and negatively affect customer service, the organization's image, productivity, and employee retention. The best selling training video "FISH" will be featured. 5. Values and Ethics - Ethical behavior affects what happens in the workplace. This course provides the opportunity to evaluate ethical behavior and what's appropriate and what's not. A three-step checklist is introduced to help participants in recognizing ethical behavior. 6. Time Management - Whether it's in the workplace, home or school, all areas of our life benefit from efficiency and productivity. The way we manage our time has an impact on our ability to get things done. Students will explore time management techniques that will help you stay in balance and be more effective in the workplace. 7. Stress Management - Nearly 1 million Americans call in sick every day because of stress related reasons, costing organizations money, especially in lowered productivity. This course defines what stress is and how it affects both employees and the overall workplace. Causes of stress are identified and dozens of stress management tips and techniques are delivered and practiced. 8. Conflict Resolution - Conflict gets in the way of good business and meaningful relationships. Participants will explore the causes and impact conflict can have on customer service and workplace affairs. This course will cover proven strategies and techniques for resolving tough issues and how to turn a difficult customer, or colleague, into a loyal one. 9. Decision Making and Problem Solving - Many of us face a constant barrage of workplace decisions and problems to be solved. Regardless of job responsibilities, students will learn that they are responsible for smart choices. Instruction will focus on decision-making styles, processes and techniques, and when they each should be applied. Students will learn how to be creative problem solvers. 10. Managing Organizational Change - It's easy to become comfortable in a workplace environment and not expect change, but when change happens, we have natural tendencies to resist. This course reviews the negative effects of resisting change, skills needed to manage new responsibilities, and how to focus on the positive side of change. The Customer Service Academy is an interactive program that will utilize videos, books, personality assessments, presentation tools, and incorporate games to enhance the students' interpersonal skills and encourage participation in all 10 courses. It is expected that with this training, participants will improve their chances of doing well on interviews and increase their probability of obtaining employment. Exhibit A 2 DO-12-1722-01 To expose the youth to higher education, the training may be conducted on the college campuses of Santa Ana College and/or Santiago Canyon College, or the RSCCD operations center: • Santa Ana College - main campus located at the intersection of Bristol and 17"' streets. • Santiago Canyon College - located in Orange at Chapman and Newport avenues. RSCCD Operations Center - this facility houses economic and workforce development programs that offer many professional development and business workshops on site. By allowing students the opportunity to experience higher learning at a college facility, we hope that they will become comfortable in seeking advanced education by enrolling in an academic institution that will earn them a college degree.

YOUR CIVIL RIGHTS UNDER THE WORKFORCE INVESTMENT ACT Santa Ana Local Workforce Investment Area 1000 E. Santa Ana Blvd., Ste 200 Santa Ana, CA 92701 (714)565-2600 B. Criminal Complaints In accordance with the WIA (P.L. 105-200) and the implementing code of Federal section 667.600.... Federal handling of criminal complaints and report fraud, abuse and other criminal activity. "All information and complaints involving fraud, abuse or other criminal activity shall be reported directly and immediately to the City of Santa Ana and the Secretary of Labor." II. General Procedures for Handling Non-Criminal Violations of the Act The following procedure is promulgated to meet the requirements of Title 20, of the Code of Federal Regulations, Section 667.600 through 667.640 of the WIA regulations, and Section 181(c) of the Act (Public Law 105.200: 29 U.S. Code Sec. 2931 et seq.) at the State and LWIA 6 EXHIBIT B level for the receipt, investigation, hearing, and resolution of complaints by WIA participants, sub recipients, applicants for participation, or financial assistance, labor unions, community based organizations, or any other persons. These procedures provide for resolution of non-criminal complaints arising from the operation of the Santa Ana LWIA. A complaint is defined here as a written expression by a party alleging a violation of the Act, regulations promulgated under the Act, recipient grants, sub agreements, or other specific agreements under the Act, including terms and conditions of employment of such participants in employment training programs. All complaints, amendments and withdrawals shall be in writing. These procedures are intended to resolve matters which concern policies, procedures or action(s) arising in connection with WIA programs operated by each LWIA grant recipient and sub recipient under the Act. These procedures shall not be construed as affecting any other available legal remedy outside of the WIA complaint process (i.e., disputes regarding terms and conditions of employment of any employee who is not a participant), either separately or simultaneously, that a person may wish to pursue in the resolution of a non-WIA complaint. Also, these procedures do not restrict the LWIA grant recipient staff in carrying out informal discussion Procedures do not restrict the LWIA grant recipient staff in carrying out informal discussion and resolution of any problems outside of and without resort to the formal complaint procedure. A. The following principles and rules apply to all complaints at all steps of the complaint procedures: All complaints must be made in writing within 180 days of the alleged occurrence, except complaints alleging fraud or criminal activity. 2. All persons filing a complaint shall be free from restraint, coercion, reprisal, or discrimination. Good faith efforts shall be made to informally resolve the complaint prior to the scheduled hearing. Complainants have the right to withdraw their complaints (in writing) at any time prior to the hearing. A complainant may amend his/her complaint to correct technical deficiencies but not to add issues. 3. Complainants shall have the right to be represented at their own expense by person(s) of their choosing at all levels of the complaint process. 4. Upon enrollment into employment or training, participants shall be provided with a written description of these procedures, including notification of their right to file complaints and instructions for filing. An employer of participants, including private-for-profit employers of participants, may use this or other complaint resolution procedures so long as the participant is informed of the complaint resolution procedure they are to follow and the time frames governing review of complaints are met. 7 EXHIBIT B DO-12-1722-01 A "participant", within the meaning of these procedures, is an individual who receives employment-training services under a program funded by Santa Ana LWIA. The Complaint Resolution Procedures contained herein (or the alternative procedures which an employer may use) shall be available to participants to resolve disputes regarding items and conditions of employment of such participants in employment training programs. However, such procedures shall not be used to resolve disputes regarding terms and conditions of employment of any employee who is not a participant, as defined herein. 5. If a complaint does not receive a decision at the LWIA grant recipient level within 60 days of filing the complaint or receives an unsatisfactory decision, the complainant then has a right to request a review of the complaint by the Governor. 6. Complainants must initially file and exhaust LWIA grant recipient/hearing procedures prior to appealing to the State except where the State determines that the LWIA grant recipient's procedures are not in compliance with the State's procedures. III. Procedures for Handling Complaints at the LWIA Level A. Receipt Complaints Pursuant to the WIA regulations found at 20 CFR, Section 667.600, the LWIA administrative entities have the responsibility to conduct hearings and resolve complaints made by individuals about the administration of programs in the LWIA. "LWIA level" encompasses LWIA administrative entity and employers to which the administrative entity has delegated the complaint resolution process. The following comprise the guidelines for resolving issues arising in connection with WIA programs operated by the Santa Ana LWIA including resolutions of complaints arising from actions, such as audit disallowances or the imposition of sanctions taken by the Governor with respect to audit findings, investigations or monitoring reports. 1. Form and Filing of Compliant Official filing date of the compliant is the date the written complaint is received. The filing of the complaint with the Santa Ana LWIA Equal Employment Opportunity Officer shall be considered as a request for hearing and a decision must be issued within 60 days. The complaint must be in writing and must be signed and dated. The complaint should also contain the following information: a. Full name, telephone number, if any, and mailing address of the complainant; b. Full name, telephone number, and mailing address of the agency involved (respondent); c. Clear and concise statement of facts including dates constituting alleged violation; s EXHIBIT B DO-12-1722-01 d. What provisions under the Act, regulations, grant or other agreements under the Act, are believed to have been violated; e. Remedy sought by the complainant; and f. If the complainant is a private or public entity or corporation, and not a natural person, the filing of the complaint must be duly authorized by the governing body of such entity or corporation. The absence of any of the requested information shall not be a basis for dismissing the complaint. A copy of the complaint must be sent to the respondent and both parties notified of the opportunity for an informal resolution. At each step of the complaint process, the complainant must be notified in writing of the next procedural step. 2. Informal Conference Informal conferences will be utilized by the Santa Ana LWIA to resolve complaints; however, such informal conferences shall not extend the time within which a decision must be issued after receipt of a complaint. Attempts at informal resolution will commence with two (2) weeks of the date of filing of the complaint. a. The EEO Officer will review the case and ascertain facts prior to the conference so that appropriate resolution can take place at the time of this meeting whenever possible. b. Although the complainant should be encouraged to attend this conference, his/her failure to do so should not preclude his/her right to request a hearing on the matter. c. If mutually satisfactory resolution results and the Santa Ana LWIA concurs, the EEO Officer will write a brief report for the file stating the issues and resolution. The matter shall then be considered closed. d. If resolution does not result, the complainant shall be provided the necessary information and assistance to request a hearing if he/she so desires. 3. Request for Hearing a. As in the case of the complaint, the request for a hearing should be put in writing and be filed in person or by mail. A governing board resolution of authorization to appeal should also be submitted when appropriate. The request should be filled with: Anita Queen Sr. Personnel Analyst - EEO Officer 20 Civic Center Drive, M-24 Santa Ana, CA 92701 (714) 647-5157 9 EXHIBIT B DO-12-1722-01 b. A hearing will be scheduled by the EEO Officer within thirty (30) days of the date of filing of the complaint. 4. Notice of Hearing Upon receipt of the request for hearing, the complainant and the respondent will be notified in writing of the hearing ten (10) calendar days prior to the date of the hearing. The ten-day notice may be shortened with the written consent of the parties. A decision will be issued by the Santa Ana LWIA within sixty (60) days of the date of filing of the complaint. The hearing notice shall be in writing and contain the following information: a. The date of notice, name of the complainant, and the name of the party against whom the complaint is filed. b. The date, time and place of hearing before an impartial hearing officer. c. A statement(s) of the alleged violation(s) d. Advise as to where information or assistance may be obtained, and the name, address, and telephone number of the Santa Ana LWIA Equal Employment Opportunities (EEO) Officer who can answer inquiries. B. Conduct of Hearing The hearing shall be conducted in an informal manner with strict rules of evidence not applicable. Unnecessary technicalities should be avoided. It should provide the flexibility to enable adjustment to the circumstances presented. 1. The hearing officer shall have complete independence to obtain facts and make decisions. The hearing officer shall be in a position to render impartial decisions and thus should not be subordinate to the Santa Ana LWIA or its sub recipients. The hearing officer will be selected from a list of names on file with the EEO Officer. 2. Full regard must be given to the requirements of due process to insure a fair and impartial hearing. 3. The hearing office designated by the EEO Officer to function in a quasi-judicial capacity should begin the hearing by summarizing the record and the issue and should explain the manner in which the hearing will be conducted, making sure that everyone involved understands the proceedings. Such explanations should be adapted to the needs of the specific situation. The hearing officer might take testimony under oath or affirmation to give some assurance of veracity to the hearing. 10 EXHIBIT B DO-12-1722-01 4. The burden of proof should be reasonable and flexible, dependent upon the circumstances of the case involved. The hearing officer determines the order of proof. Generally, the party making the complaint has the obligation of establishing his or her case and should be examined first. 5. The party involved should have the right to be represented (at their own expense) if he/she so desires. Other he/she is limited to his/her own abilities and those to the hearing officer in obtaining testimony in the case. 6. It is important that the hearing officer obtain the fullest information for the record. If the parties involved, or their representatives, do not know how to ask the right or pertinent questions in pursuing their right to due process, it shall be necessary for the hearing officer to step in to have all the materials and relevant facts elicited. 7. The practice in informal hearings is generally not to apply strict rules of evidence in obtaining facts. However, the quantity of evidence required to support a decision on an issue should be sufficiently credible that the state (or other appropriate agency), upon reviewing the decision, would conclude that the decision is supported by substantial evidence. 8. The hearing officer should attempt to negotiate a resolution of the issue at any time prior to the conclusion of the hearing. 9. Within ten (10) days of the conclusion of the hearing, the hearing officer will issue a recommended decision to the LWIA for final determination. The recommended decision shall be in writing and may be accepted, rejected or modified by the Santa Ana Workforce Investment Board. C. Issuance of Decision Within sixty (60) calendar days of filing of the complaint, the Santa Ana LWIA shall issue a written decision to all parties by first class mail. The final decision shall contain the following information: 1. The name of the parties involved. 2. A statement of the alleged violation and issues related to the alleged violation. 3. A statement of the facts. 4. The decision and the reasons for the decision. 5. A statement of corrective action, if any, to be taken. 6. Notice of the right to request, within ten (10) calendar days of receipt of the decision, a review of the decision by the State Review Panel. D. Record of Hearing 11 EXHIBIT B DO-12-1722-01 An administrative file containing support documents on the complaint resolution process hearing conducted will be retained by the Santa Ana LWIA. The purpose of a record is to serve as substantiation of the process followed by the Santa Ana LWIA on the resolution of the issues and the results. This information would then be available for subsequent review in the event the matter is raised with the State. Such records must be retained for a three- year period after the grant has been officially closed out. The Santa Ana LWIA's written decision will be included in the record. Evidence received at the hearing, notes by the hearing officer, stenographer's notes and tape recordings may also be used. E. Establishment of Complaint Procedures In accordance with Section 667.600, each employing agency including private-for-profit employers of participants under the Act is required to establish a complaint procedure for resolving matters relating to the terms and conditions of employment. Employers may operate their own grievance system or may utilize the Santa Ana LWIA's established procedures under Section 667.600. At a minimum these procedures must include: Written notice, upon enrollment into employment training services, of the scope and availability of such procedures. Employer's grievance procedures shall be set forth in a written document and must meet the regulation mandate that a complaint will be resolved with sixty (60) days from the date the complaint was filed. A copy of employer's grievance procedure shall be provided to each participant upon enrollment in employment training. 2. Written notice, at the time the grievance is filed, of the procedures under which the grievance will be processed. 3. Written notification of the disposition of the grievance and a written decision shall be issued within thirty (30) days of the filing of the grievance unless a present and long established grievance specifically provides other limits; and 4. Written notification of the participant's right to request a review of the employer's decision by the Santa Ana LWIA and the State Review Panel in accordance with Section 667.600. IV. Procedures for Handling Complaints at the State Level Section 181 (c) of the Act and the WIA regulations at 20 CFR, Section 667.600 (d) requires the Governor to establish a State Review process of complaints filed at the LWIA grant recipient level and of complaints initially filed at the State level. Appeals of decisions issued at the LWIA level including audit disallowances and sanctions shall be reviewed by the State Review Panel. The State Review Panel shall review the record established at the LWIA level and shall issue a decision based on the information contained therein. 12 EXHIBIT B DO-12-1722-01 Complaints which may be initially filed at the State level will be heard by an independent hearing officer designated by the State Workforce Investment Division (WID). The hearing officer shall conduct a hearing and issue a recommended decision to the State Panel. The recommended decision shall be in writing and may be accepted, rejected or modified by the State Review Panel. A. Form and Filing of Complaint. 1. Request for State Review of LWIA Level Decisions On receipt of a complainant's request for review because of an unsatisfactory decision, the State shall provide for an independent state review. 2.

The Chief, WID, shall mail a copy of the request for review to the other party and to the LWIA. It shall be the responsibility of the LWIA to submit the complete record including a typed record of the hearing to the Chief, WID, within ten (10) days. B. Conduct of Hearings. 1. Request for Hearing at the State Level If no decision has been issued at the LWIA level or the State has determined an audit disallowance or imposed sanctions, the complainant may request a hearing. The 13 EXHIBIT B DO-12-1722-01 hearing officer will then issue a recommended decision to the State's Review Panel for final determination. 2. Filing for Request for Review The request for a State hearing shall be filed within ten (10) days after LWIA should have issued a decision or ten (10) days after the issuance of the audit disallowance or sanction. The request shall be filed directly with the Chief of the WID in writing and should include the following: a. Full name, address, and telephone number of the LWIA b. Name, address, and telephone number of the LWIA C. Copies of complaints made at LWIA level from which no decisions were issued or sanctions and imposed. d. A statement of basis for the request for hearing. 3. Evidentiary Hearing Upon receipt of the request for a State level hearing, a hearing before a designated hearing officer will be scheduled.

Both parties concerned will have the opportunity to present oral and written testimony under oath, to call and question witnesses in support of his/her position, to present oral and/or written arguments, to examine records and documents relevant to the issue(s), and to be represented. The hearing officer shall issue a written decision, which shall be forwarded to the State Review Panel for final determination. The State Review Panel may accept, reject or modify this recommendation. The decision of the State Review Panel is final except for audit disallowances, which must be approved by the Secretary of Labor C. State Review Panel The State Review Panel will consist of a panel of three representatives from the Employment Development Department: one from the Legal Offices, one from the WID, and one from the Director's office. The panel will issue a written decision, which will be sent to the appropriate parties within thirty (30) days of receipt of the request for State review. Decisions issued by this panel, under the authority of the Governor, are final. 14 EXHIBIT B DO-12-1722-01 D. Issuance of State Review Decision.
