TRAINING AND EMPLOYMENT GUIDANCE LETTER No. 29-09
Training and Employment Guidance Letter No. 29-09
One-Year Extension of the Program Year (PY) 2008-2009 Two-Year Strategic Plan for the Workforce Investment Act (WIA), Indian and Native American Program for PY 2010.
The purpose of this Training and Employment Guidance Letter (TEGL) is to notify Indian and Native American grantees of the Employment and Training Administration’s (ETA) decision to provide designated grantees with the option to extend the two-year Comprehensive Services Program (CSP) plan and Supplemental Youth Services Program (SYSP) plan through PY 2010. The reason for extending the current two-year plan is to align the Native American Program’s planning cycle with the State Workforce System’s planning cycle (State Workforce strategic plans have been extended for one additional PY). This will allow better coordination between the States and the Native American Program when developing partnerships and negotiating Memorandums of Understanding. In addition, the Department of Labor (DOL) is anticipating the reauthorization of WIA within the next year which may require the two-year strategic plans to be modified again.
