PUBLIC COMMENTS

There were no comments.

WORKFORCE INVESTMENT BOARD, YOUTH COUNCIL AND COMMITTEE ATTENDANCE

Karen Briefer-Gose explained the attendance chart that was in the agenda packet and reminded Members that the Executive Committee would be reviewing the attendance of all meetings to determine if any attendance issues need to be addressed. Karen explained that the Youth Council had not been told of this change until May 6, 2015, so the official Youth Council attendance will begin at the September 30, 2015, Youth Council Meeting.

NOTIFICATION OF FUNDING OPPORTUNITY

Rosemary Hobbs updated the Committee about a funding opportunity through the Department of Labor that Employers' Training Resource (ETR) is applying for $500,000 to use over the course of two years. This opportunity would be in coordination with the Kem County Sheriffs Office. ETR would be offering a jail-based America's Job Center of California (AJCC) at the Lerdo Detention Facility. The goal of the program is to enroll inmates that are within 180 days of release into work experience programs and provide supportive services to them.

The goal of the program at post-release is to get the inmates placed into employment or postsecondary education. Staffing will include one program specialist from the Sheriffs office and one program specialist from ETR.

Leo Bautista asked what types of positions these inmates may get after release. Candy ClineGettman explained that we work with some of these clients through our AB109 program already. ETR hopes that if we have staff that can get into the facility, potential participants will become familiar with our program so when they come out of the detention facility they will have an idea on what direction they hope to pursue.

Rosemary explained that the Sheriff's office already has some work experience sites set up at the Lerdo facility such as a laundry service program and food service program, therefore giving them some industry recognized certificates already. Inmates are also working on GED skills before being released.

LEGISLATIVE UPDATE AND BOARD COMPOSITION UNDER WORKFORCE INNOVATION AND OPPORTUNITY ACT

Elaine Basham explained to Members that at the last Executive Meeting it was suggested that something be added to our website telling potential training providers and vendors for the adult and dislocated worker combined programs that ETR is not doing a Request for Proposals for those programs. Elaine noted that this information is now on our website.

Elaine stated that this week members of the senate committed to a budget resolution. The budget resolution is not a binding document and does not go to the President to be signed. It is, however, the will of congress to go to the appropriations committee. Elaine predicts that the best ETR can hope for is to get the same amount of funding that we received this year.

Elaine stated at the next Workforce Investment Board (WIB) meeting there will be a letter discussing what the Board desires their composition to consist of under the Workforce Innovation and Opportunities Act (WIOA). The new Act authorizes having smaller Boards. So we will be asking the WIB what they would like the Board to look like going forward into WIOA.

APPROVAL OF THE MARCH 19, 2015, EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE MEETING MINUTES

Leo Bautista made a motion to approve the March 19, 2015, Executive Committee meeting minutes. George Lartigue seconded the motion. All Ayes. The motion carried.

APPROVAL OF PROPOSED AGENDA FOR THE MAY 21, 2015, WORKFORCE INVESTMENT BOARD MEETING

Leo Bautista made a motion to approve the proposed agenda for the May 21, 2015, Workforce Investment Board Meeting. John Spaulding seconded the motion. All Ayes. The motion carried.

DISCUSSION OF BOARD MEMBER TRAVEL POLICY

Anne Meert stated that the local WIB does not have a formal travel policy. When WIB members have traveled in the past to trainings or conferences, the costs had been paid by the member's employer, by the members themselves, or underwritten by Employers' Training Resource using nonWorkforce Investment Act monies.

Anne discussed sample policies she had found that other WIBs had adopted and stressed that ETR will still have to follow County rules and administrative procedures governing travel since ETR is a Kem County Department under the County Administrative Office. Anne hopes to have a draft policy to present to the Committee for consideration at the October 2015 meeting.

Alissa Thome made a motion to approve the development of a Board Member Travel Policy, with the final policy reflective of input from the Executive Committee members. Leo Bautista seconded the motion. All Ayes. The motion carried.

APPOINTMENTS TO THE WORKFORCE DEVELOPMENT BOARD YOUTH COUNCIL

Dear Committee Member:

The Workforce Development Board (WDB) and the Kem County Board of Supervisors approved staggered terms for members of the Youth Council with one half of the members appointed every eighteen months. Mr. Todd Yepez, Ms. Ngoc Pham, and Ms. Karen Blake have expressed an interest in serving on the Workforce Development Board Youth Council. Their Statements of Commitment for membership are attached.

Our Youth Council has been out of compliance with the requirement that at least one member be either a current or former youth participant or parent of a participant. Ms. Veronica Vega, a participant enrolled with the Kem High School District (KHSD), has expressed an interest in serving as a youth participant on the Youth Council.

Mr. Todd Yepez is a Human Resource Manager for PCL Industrial Services, Inc. is currently serving as an active member on the Workforce Development Board and has an interest in serving the youth of Kem County, replacing Rupert Gregorio as a Business member.

Ms. Ngoc Pham is a Senior Accountant for Airstreams Renewables, Inc. She was a struggling, at-risk youth herself and was able to obtain a college degree and meaningful employment. Ms. Pham would like to ensure that the youth of Kem are able to receive the same opportunities she strived for and obtain the American dream.

Ms. Karen Blake is the Executive Director of STEMdelivered.org. She has a personal passion in working with educators and youth in Kem County to develop a technical workforce.

Ms. Veronica Vega was enrolled as an In-School Youth during high school and is now a junior at California State University, Bakersfield. Her schedule is compatible with the Youth Council's new meeting time of 3:00 p.m. Ms. Vega is KHSD's team leader of the Peer Support Workers who serve as youth advocates, market Career Resource Department activities, and conduct workshops and training. Her experience and continued engagement in Workforce Innovation and Opportunity Act programs and activities will make her an excellent participant representative on the Youth Council.

BOARD MEMBER TRAVEL POLICY


At your last series of meetings in May, your Executive Committee and full Board approved the recommendation to develop a Board Member Travel Policy. This policy would be applicable to both the Workforce Development Board (WDB) and the Youth Council (YC). Currently, on the occasion that members attended conferences or training, the associated costs have been paid by the members themselves or their employers, or underwritten from an Employers' Training Resource (ETR) non-Workforce Innovation and Opportunity Act (WIOA) account.

We realize the importance of having a well-informed and well-trained WDB and YC and wish to encourage members to participate in regional, state and national workforce training seminars and conferences. Participation in such events enable members to gain important knowledge and expertise through exposure to and sharing of best practices, trends and challenges with workforce development stakeholders. This is especially vital as the WIOA is the first legislative reform of the public workforce system in 15 years.

As mentioned at your last meeting, many Boards have established travel policies and guidelines to document and justify the use of governmental funds to cover travel expenses. In looking at what other Workforce Development Areas have in place, and taking into consideration the County of Kern's rules and administrative procedures governing travel, the attached draft "Kem, Inyo, Mono Counties Consortium Workforce Development Board and Youth Council Travel Policy and Procedures" has been drafted.

Key items in the policy include the following: • The WDB will approve a travel budget annually. • Members requesting cost reimbursement for travel must be in good standing and have

satisfactorily followed the travel policy in the past (if applicable). • Members who represent agencies which benefit from the conference/training must

request sponsorship or cost sharing from their employer first. The response from their employer and the amount of any sponsorship must be provided along with the travel request.

A proud partner qf America's Job Center qfCalfjomia

2

• Travel requests must be submitted to ETR. Initial approval will be sought by the Executive Committee (if time permits due to the meeting schedule) or the WDB Chairperson. Final approval must be granted by the County Administrative Office and the Kern County Board of Supervisors.

• ETR will communicate travel opportunities to members. Dates and locations for the three main conferences are provided below:

CW A Youth Conference 2016 January 12 - 14, 2016 Sacramento

CW A Annual Spring Conference March 29-31, 2016 San Diego

Meeting of the Minds September 6 - 8, 2016 Monterey

• Priority will be for members whose costs will be shared, members more likely to benefit based on the conference/meeting topic, and officers of the WDB and YC.

• Allowed expenses will follow the County of Kern's travel, meals, and lodging policies and rates which change from time to time. Documentation of expenses is required. ETR will assist in making conference registration and travel arrangements.

• Members are required to provide a report on the conference/training at the next meeting of the WDB or YC.

It is recommended that an annual travel budget be set at $4,000 of WIOA formula funding to cover registration fees, lodging, meals and other travel expenses. Training or conferences which are grant-specific will be charged to that grant. The number of members expected to be able to attend events will depend on travel costs, cost sharing and sponsorships.

Therefore, it is recommended that your Committee approve the draft "Kem, Inyo, Mono Counties Consortium Workforce Development Board and Youth Council Travel Policy and Procedures" and an annual budget of $4,000 and recommend that the full WDB approve the policy and budget at its October 15, 2015, meeting, subject to any changes adopted by the Board.

Sincerely,

KERN, INYO, MONO COUNTIES CONSORTIUM WORKFORCE DEVELOPMENT BOARD AND YOUTH COUNCIL

TRAVEL POLICY AND PROCEDURES (Covering Conference/Training/Seminar Attendance and Travel)

[Draft - September 2015]

1. PURPOSE

The Governor of California has designated the Kem, Inyo, Mono Counties Consortium (KIM) as a Local Workforce Development Area under the federal Workforce Innovation and Opportunity Act of 2014 (WIOA). The Workforce Development Board (WDB) and Youth Council (YC) members are encouraged to attend events that will enhance their knowledge of local, State and Federal WIOA issues. Members can and should take advantage of the workshops and opportunities for networking to further their ability to contribute to the Board and Council's effectiveness.

In an effort to minimize any financial hardships service on the WDB or YC may cause its members and in order to sponsor and encourage member participation at conferences, training and seminars, WIOA funds may be used to reimburse members for authorized expenses incurred during service to the WDB and YC. This policy sets forth the guidelines for such spending and reimbursement and is based on the County of Kern's travel, meal and lodging policy which is changed from time to time.

As limited funding will be made available for WDB and YC members to travel (the amount to be approved by the WDB annually), the WDB Chairperson will encourage and seek volunteers, approve requests and make recommendations through the Executive Committee, as time permits. It is expected that non-business members (e.g., those members representing community-based organizations, education, labor, partner agencies, etc.) seek funding from their own agencies/organizations first. There may be occasions when sharing costs will be considered particularly when agencies/organizations have a duality of purpose in the conference or training seminar. Members who represent agencies/organizations and who have WIOA or other workforce funds available should use those funds prior to asking for WDB sponsorship.

2. MEMBER ELIGIBILITY TO REQUEST TRAVEL AND PRIORITY OF SERVICE

In order for travel requests to be considered, the member must:

• Be listed on the KIM WDB or YC roster on file at the Kem County Board of Supervisors;

• Be a member in good standing defined as unexpired term and meeting attendance requirements; and

KIM Board Member Travel Policy Drafted September 2015

\

• Have complied with the travel policy in the past, if applicable, including the requirement to provide a written and/or oral report at the next WDB or YC meeting following the conference or training seminar.

To encourage broad participation, generally a member will be considered for one conference or training seminar per year, and the number of attendees per event will be limited. Priority will be given to members whose costs will be shared by another entity, members more likely to benefit than other members (based on the training/seminar/conference topic), and officers of the WDB and YC.

Events which involve no cost are not covered by this policy. Members are encouraged to attend local events, participate in free webinars, and leverage other resources to expand their workforce development knowledge and to network.

Only approved training/seminars/conferences will be considered under this policy. All expenses must be justified to demonstrate that they are necessary and reasonable. Examples of allowed events include the California Workforce Association (CWA) Annual Youth Conference, Spring Conference and Meeting of the Minds. Employers' Training Resource (ETR) staff will alert the WDB and YC of upcoming events. The Executive Committee and WDB Chairperson will have final approval as to which events will be considered allowable and which travel requests will be approved. As the Executive Committee and WDB meet quarterly, to ensure timely travel reservations and meeting "early bird" or government discounts, the WDB Chairperson will be authorized to approve events and travel requests on behalf of the Executive Committee. These approvals will be reported at the next regularly scheduled meeting of the Executive Committee and the WDB. The WDB Chairperson will resolve any conflicts that may arise regarding conference attendance. The Kern County Board of Supervisors has final approval of travel using WIOA or other County funds.

3. BOARD MEMBER/YOUTH COUNCIL TRAVEL REQUEST FORM

Any member requesting travel reimbursement will complete a "Kern, Inyo, Mono Counties Consortium Workforce Development Board/Youth Council Member Travel Request Form" which will require the member to justify why it is in the interest of the WDB or YC for that member to attend the training, seminar or conference. All nonbusiness members will have to provide verification that they have requested the agency or organization they represent to sponsor or partially sponsor their attendance at the training, seminar or conference, the agency or organization response, and the amount of sponsorship, if any.

4. TRAVEL REQUESTS

Approved travel requests will be processed by ETR staff following the County of Kern's

2 KIM Board Member Travel Policy Drafted September 2015

l

travel, meals, and lodging policy which changes from time to time.

5. ALLOWABLE EXPENSES

A. General Provisions

When possible, ETR staff will be responsible for all conference registration arrangements, hotel reservations, transportation reservations and trip logistics. Members who use WIOA/County funds to travel should do so in the most reasonable economic manner possible. This would include obtaining government rates or special conference rates at hotels, shopping for reasonable airfares, and using public transportation if available and reasonably convenient. Carpooling is encouraged but not required.

Once a member has been approved to travel, ETR staff will complete the necessary paperwork and submit to the ETR Director, the County Administrative Office, and the Kem County Board of Supervisors for processing/approval.

B. Expenses

Allowable expenses may include the following: • Conference/training registration fees • Hotel accommodations • Mileage • Intercity/state transportation • Toll charges • Parking • Meals (those not provided as part of the conference)

Rates for the above will be determined by the County of Kern's travel policy and/or verified receipts. Members will be required to submit receipts for hotel, parking, and other expenses along with a copy of the agenda or flyer for the event. If valet parking is the only service provided by the hotel for guests, the hotel is to provide a written statement confirming this parking arrangement. Meal per diem is based on location and departure/return times.

C. Automobile Insurance

The liability on any personal vehicle used for WDB or YC business must conform to the minimum requirements of the California Vehicle Code. Members will not be reimbursed for mileage expenses unless proof of automobile insurance coverage or a Certificate of Insurance is on file with the County of Kem. Members should submit proof of such coverage to ETR staff prior to travel.

6. TRAVEL REQUEST APPROVAL

All travel requests are to be submitted to the ETR Director for review. Requests will be


forwarded to the WDB Chairperson and the Executive Committee for consideration and approval. Requests approved will be processed by ETR staff and submitted to the County Administrative Office and the Kem County Board of Supervisors for approval. The member will be notified as soon as possible when the travel request has been finalized. The member may need to submit additional items to complete the travel claim process. Care should be taken to ensure that approved travel does not exceed the WDB/YC travel budget.

7. POST-CONFERENCE REPORT

Members who attend conferences and/or training sessions are expected to make a report to the WDB or YC at the next regular meeting of the WDB or YC following the conference and to contribute informational and training materials to the ETR resource library. This will be an agenda item.

LEGISLATIVE UPDATE AND LOCAL AREA AND BOARD DESIGNATION


FISCAL YEAR2016 APPROPRIATIONS

Since your committee met in May, the House and Senate Budget Committees completed their appropriation Bills for Fiscal Year (FY) 2016. Unlike in FY 2014 and 2015, there is no agreement in place to reduce the impact of sequestration or the budgetary caps in FY 2016. As a result, workforce development programs could again be exposed to significant funding cuts.

The House Labor Bill keeps Workforce Innovation and Opportunity (WIOA) formula funding level at the expense of National Emergency Grant (NEG). NEG is reduced by more than 65 percent in order to accommodate a reduction without impacting formula funding levels.

The Senate Bill increases the Governors set-aside back up to 15 percent; providing an additional $111 million in flexible funding for workforce programs at the state level; thereby increasing the opportunity for Local Areas to compete for discretionary grant funds. Congress had reduced the set-aside in prior 3 years and had instead provided those funds to Local Areas even as they cut the amount of formula funds.

The Senate Labor Bill would reduce funding for overall WIOA programs by nearly 10 percent compared to FY 2015. Title I formula funds are reduced 5 percent with the NEG level down 9.4 percent. This Bill would put funding for these programs near FY 2013 post-sequester level.

As you know from the news, the appropriations Bills have not been voted on and at this writing it's likely a short-term Continuing Resolution (CR) will be required to keep the government operating at the start of the federal Fiscal Year (FY) on October 1, 2015. However the CR will only cover a few weeks of the FY and will likely require more brinksmanship in December. At this time, the most likely funding amount in a CR is funding at the 2015 level. However, without a vote to exclude Sequestration, any long term CR will likely include those cuts.

CALIFORNIA UNDER THE WORKFORCE INNOVATION AND OPPORTUNITY ACT UPDATE

On August 7, 2015, the state granted final approval to our application for initial Local Area designation through June 30, 2017 and Local Board certification through June 30, 2016. Staff recently commented on a draft directive issued by the State regarding subsequent Board certification. Effective July 1, 2015, the Kem, Inyo and Mono Local Workforce Investment Area and Board are now the Local Workforce Development Area/Board. Since the acronym WIB is now WDB most Areas are referring to them simply as the Local Area and the Local Board.

We will continue to keep your Committee informed of legislative actions including appropriations and changes under WIOA.

Sincerely,

SUBJECT: Initial Designation as a Local Workforce Development Area

Dear Mr. Couch,

This letter is to inform you that the california Workforce Development Board has recommended approval of your application for initial designation as a Local Workforce Development Area under the federal Workforce Innovation and Opportunity Act (WIOA}. The Governor and the Secretary of the Labor & Workforce Development Agency have concurred with this recommendation.

Initial designation is for the 2-year period of July 1, 2015 through June 30, 2017. Local board certification was combined in this application process. Your local board is certified for the 1-year period of July 1, 2015 through June 30, 2016.

Congratulations on your designation as a Local Workforce Development Area. We look forward to our continued partnership in the successful implementation of WIOA in California.

If you have any questions, please contact your Employment Development Department Regional Advisor.

WORKFORCE INNOVATION AND OPPORTUNITY ACT (WIOA) UPDATE


TRANSITIONING THE 2013-2017 FIVE-YEAR LOCAL PLAN TO WIOA

Elements of the Workforce Innovation and Opportunity Act (WIOA) are being implemented via a "transition" year from July 1, 2015 through June 30, 2016. As we mentioned in the Legislation update, the Local Area and Local Board have been established under WIOA. In addition, the State is implementing provisions such as drafting a unified State plan that now combines California's plans for Core programs under WIOA, ensuring that all agency plans are collaborative. The State intends to issue the draft plan in October or November. The final approved plan is due to the Department of Labor in March 2016.

The Core programs are: (1) WIOA Title I including Adult and Dislocated Worker formula funds; (2) Wagner-Peyser Employment Services; (3) Adult Education and Literacy; and (4) Vocational Rehabilitation. In addition to enacting WIOA, Congress has also amended the workforce development provisions of those acts accordingly. The four Core programs are required to use the same set of Performance Measures. Those include measures of: (a) job placement, (b) employment retention, ( c) median wage, ( d) percent obtained postsecondary credential or secondary school diploma/GED; ( e) those in training or education showing measureable skills attainment; and (f) effectiveness of core one-stop programs service delivery to employers.

Under WIOA some things remain the same: a business-led Local Board with a business Chair and the One-Stop career center system. As you know the State Board had already implemented an industry sector focus in 2013, another tenant of WIOA. WIOA promotes work-based training by offering higher reimbursement to eligible employers under on-the-job training contracts. WIOA changes to the Rehabilitation Act include emphasis on integrated, versus sheltered, employment.

Once the State issues its unified plan for review, it will host regional comment forums for the Local Areas to comment, ask for clarification and offer opinions on State Plan areas of concerns to the Local Area.

As part of the sector focus, the results of the forum and surveys, valuable information on more than 30 employability or soft skills, workplace skills and hiring criteria was collected. Employers' Training Resource (ETR) staff met with our America's Job Center of California (AJCC) partners to pool resources and develop a common group of skills to roll out to more AJCC job seekers. When that work is done we will present it to the Workforce Development Board.

We will keep you posted as more information on WIOA implementation is received.

Sincerely,
