Good data helps us better understand what’s working and what’s not in terms of creating greater access to workforce investments and in reporting the measurable economic gains of skills training programs that advance career pathways, build wealth, and expand the well-being of workers. Well-designed data systems, too, are crucial to track progress toward closing equity gaps.  \nPostsecondary education and training have become essential to the economic mobility of working adults of color, immigrants, and workers with a high school diploma or less. State leaders have recognized the critical importance of postsecondary attainment in meeting equity and economic goals. Credentials are a key component of state postsecondary attainment goals and economic recovery responses, helping workers earning low wages transition into better jobs in expanding sectors and serving to reconnect them to further postsecondary education and training opportunities.  \nStates have made significant advances in data sharing and use, transparency and reporting, data governance, and using their data systems to build knowledge about which credentials have value for workers and businesses. These developments help workers save time and money, make it easier for businesses to identify talent and address emerging skill needs, and help states know how to invest limited resources in high-quality skills training programs to maximize equitable outcomes.  \nThis issue brief outlines emerging and innovative data approaches that states have identified and implemented to better connect individuals with the education, skills training, and other supports needed to close equity gaps. The brief identifies timely opportunities for policymakers and advocates to foster the development of effective approaches and speed up the adoption of innovative strategies.  \nSTATES SHOULD ESTABLISH ROBUST QUALITY CRITERIA FOR ELIGIBLE TRAINING PROVIDERS AND REQUIRE DATA DISAGGREGATION  \nOF EMPLOYMENT AND WAGE OUTCOMES FOR PARTICIPANTS OF TRAINING PROGRAMS BY RACE AND ETHNICITY TO ENSURE THAT PARTICIPANTS OF COLOR ARE BEING SERVED EQUITABLY ACROSS AND WITHIN ELIGIBLE TRAINING PROGRAMS.  \nINNOVATION IN DATA TRANSPARENCY:  \nCONNECTING LEARNERS TO HIGH-QUALITY TRAINING  \nBACKGROUND: The Workforce Innovation and Opportunity Act (WIOA) provides the primary funding and policy guidance for our nation’s public workforce system, designed to help people, including youth and those with significant barriers to employment (e.g. formerly incarcerated adults), secure high-quality jobs and careers, and to help employers hire and retain skilled workers. WIOA established guidelines for states to set upa process for how education and training providers and related credentials would qualify to receive WIOA funds to train eligible adults and youth.  \nEligible Training Provider (ETP) lists serve as a resource that can help individuals make strong educational choices to advance their careers in alignment with state or regional economic needs and support equitable access and transparency to the training and education opportunities available for participants in WIOA Title I programs. States align ETP eligibility requirements with training programs that result in credentials aligned to in-demand industry sectors and occupations. States have discretion in how training providers and their programs are eligible to join and remain on their ETP list, including how they measure the quality of the program or training services. Most state and local boards set minimum performance measurement thresholds, such as completion rates, employment rates, and median earnings.  \nThere are many working ad","cbCaitNqdQXWOO0b","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaitNqdQXWOO0b","pdf",909624,"English","# Introduction\n# States should establish robust quality criteria for eligible training providers\n# Innovation in data transparency: Connecting learners to high-quality training\n## Background\n## Spotlight: New Jersey","[{\"question\":\"Why does the brief emphasize timely and complete data for policymakers?\",\"answer\":\"Economic shocks increase the need for data-informed decisions.
