Which entity is responsible for negotiation and finalizing performance measures with the RWB to ensure the workforce programs are implemented according to federal and state guidelines?

• A. WFI/CareerSource
• B. Department of Labor
• C. State Board
• D. Governor

Answer: (D)

Performance accountability for the statewide and regional workforce programs is driven by state leadership setting and finalizing the targets. The Governor oversees this process, negotiating with the regional workforce boards to establish the performance measures that align with federal requirements under WIOA and state priorities. Once the Governor approves these targets, the regional boards implement programs to meet them, guided by state policy and the federal framework. The federal rules come from the Department of Labor, while the State Board provides policy guidance, but the formal negotiation and finalization with local boards rests with the Governor.
