WIASRD - Intro

Workforce Investment Act Standardized Record Data (WIASRD)– Individual records (not aggregate)– Very important for ad-hoc analysis

• Type of training• Demographics• Outcomes

WIASRD - Updates

Updates for 2008– Adds valid values to Other Non-WIA

Programs (WIASRD field 326) to allow states to code American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009 co-enrollments

– Designates WIASRD field 313c as a “Special Projects” field

WIASRD – Submission Tips

• Uploading WIASRD files to EBSS can be very time consuming.

• ETA processes WIASRD files overnight and provides the state with a status the following day.

• Some tips to reduce WIASRD upload time include:– Zip your file

– Remove unnecessary characters

– Firefox is faster than IE

Part 2: Data Validation

ETA’s data informs the Legislative and Executive branches of government as well as media, researchers, and the public.

Without Data Validation, ETA is not able to assess the accuracy of its data.

Employment and Training Administration

DEPARTMENT OF LABOR

ETA

How Does Data Validation Work?

Two separate processes are required to ensure that performance data is reliable:

– Report Validation ensures that aggregate reports are calculated correctly.

– Data Element Validation ensures that the data elements in the participant records used to calculate aggregate reports are accurate.

Employment and Training Administration

Data Reporting and Validation Software

Data Reporting and Validation Software (DRVS) version 7.2 released May 6, 2009.

– Use for PY2008 Annual Report and 2009 Quarterly reports– Adds valid values to Other Non-WIA Programs (WIASRD

326) to allow states to code American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009 co-enrollments

– Fully implements the Literacy/Numeracy calculation per TEGL 17-05, Change 2

– Designates WIASRD 313c as a “Special Projects” field

DRVS – Available Here!

DRVS is available at: http://www.doleta.gov/performance/Reporting/tools_datavalidation.cfm

Employment and Training Administration

ETA

DRVS is Essential to Reporting• Processes the WIA Quarterly and Annual

Reports, and the Wagner-Peyser/VETS quarterly performance reports

• Provides all functions necessary for validation– Compares reports– Sampling and data accuracy analysis

• Uploads performance reports and validation error reports to ETA

Employment and Training Administration

DEPARTMENT OF LABOR

ETA

Reporting of Validation Results

• DRVS produces: – Report validation summary– Data element validation summary and

analytical reports

• WIA and LX DRVS creates files with the annual report validation values for upload to ETA

DRVS Reporting Options Screen

This reporting option screen is for the WIA annual report covering Program Year 2008.

Creating RV Extract Files for WIA

• State IT staff produce extract file with participant records for all participants and exiters included on the appropriate report

• Extract file format is based on the WIASRD (with extra fields added to help locate participant files in one-stops – sampling unit, WIB Name, Office Name, Case Manager, and User Field)

Employment and Training Administration

DEPARTMENT OF LABOR

ETA

Loading Extract File into DRVS

• State staff import the extract file into the data validation software

• The software processes the file and builds performance outcome groups

• Multiple edit checks

Employment and Training Administration

DEPARTMENT OF LABOR

ETA

Edit Check Error Report - Example

Employment and Training Administration

DEPARTMENT OF LABOR

ETA

Reload Files if Necessary

• Review error and duplicate reports

• Determine whether the extract file must be regenerated or reformatted based on whether the number of errors is significant

• Load the entire modified extract file if necessary– DRVS will not import additional records into a

file that has already been imported.

Employment and Training Administration

DEPARTMENT OF LABOR

ETA

Uploading the WIA Annual Report to DRVS

• To calculate the error rate, the software must have the state’s reported values

• Import the item totals from the WIA Annual Report into the reported count input form

• The validation software provides the capability to e-submit the report to ETA

Employment and Training Administration

Whew…

Report Validation Summary• After reported values from the WIA

Annual Report have been imported the software produces the report validation summary

– Calculates the difference between the validation and reported values

– Displays an error rate for each reported value

• DRVS can e-submit the report to ETA

How Does Data Validation Work? (again)

Two separate processes are required to ensure that performance data is reliable:

– Report Validation ensures that aggregate reports are calculated correctly.

– Data Element Validation ensures that the data elements in the participant records used to calculate aggregate reports are accurate.

Employment and Training Administration

DEPARTMENT OF LABOR

ETA

Data Element Validation

• Report will not be accurate if the data being used by the software are wrong

• Requires checking data elements against source documentation to verify compliance with federal definitions– States identify state-specific source documentation

• DRVS produces worksheets for state staff to enter source documentation review

Employment and Training Administration

DEPARTMENT OF LABOR

ETA

Source Documents

• Source documents support the validity of a data element

• States should identify state-specific source documents

Employment and Training Administration

DEPARTMENT OF LABOR

ETA

Location of Source Documents

• Most source documentation will be located in the One-Stop center

• Some source documentation will be stored at the state level– Wage record information is checked against

state’s wage record files– There may be other central administrative

data files

Employment and Training Administration

DEPARTMENT OF LABOR

ETA

Sampling Methodology

• DRVS selects a sample of records from a sample of offices in the state– Ensures that not every office needs to be

visited for WIA

• DRVS selects a sample of records from each performance outcome– Ensures that results will represent the overall

quality of the state’s data

Employment and Training Administration

DEPARTMENT OF LABOR

ETA

Overview of Tasks for Data Element Validation

• Determine how validation will be done

• Assemble worksheets and arrange visits to offices

• Gather supporting documentation at office and complete worksheets

• Upload result to DRVS and then submit to ETA

Employment and Training Administration

Required Reports - Revisited• Annual Report required for WIA

• Quarterly reports are required for WIA and Wagner-Peyser/VETS

• Monthly WIA and Wagner-Peyser reports (ARRA)

• Workforce Investment Act Standardized Record Data (WIASRD)…and don’t forget the Data Validation

results!
