WORKFORCE PROGRAMS

Completers are defined according to a consistent definition, but it may differ from that applied for federal reporting

A completer is defined as: WIA (Program Exits from either self-assisted core or intensive

service); OTC (Finishes an OTC course at a Perkins funded site); ABLE (Completed a level and left or advanced or to a higher level

or obtained a GED); and Higher Education (Enrolled in public college in Ohio and received

state financial aid; Choose Ohio First does include some private college students).

34

DEFINITIONS:COMPLETERS

Skills Gains Higher Ed Enrollment – The percent of completers enrolled in a public

higher education institution in Ohio during each of the 2 nd and 4 th quarters post-completion.

Credentials Earned – The percent of completers who earned an ABLE GED, a credential from an OTC, or a college degree or certificate during the completion quarter or at any time up to and including the 4 th quarter post-completion.

Employment and Wages ($2010) The percent of completers employed in Ohio during each of the 2 nd and 4 th

quarters.

and working for the same employer during the 4 th quarter post-completion. This is an indicator of employment stability, suggestive of a successful hire.

DATA USES

To explore our performance on key metricsTo compare our performance over timeTo understand differences in outcomes between

programsTo identify programs that we want to learn fromTo set goals on success measures Other (up to you)

45

HOW CAN WE USE THIS DATA

Let’s take a short tour of the site to answer the question:

“Which adult dislocated worker programs are producing the strongest outcomes that I can learn from?”

(we will take the vantage point of Stark County)

46

EXAMPLE

47

48

In 2011-12, numbers are down from 2010-11 (90+ vs. 200+)The two and four quarter post completion wage numbers are

also different for the two years (32K vs. 28K) What is this tell ing us?

The numbers of people using dislocated worker programs varied over time

The payoff after 2 and 4 quarters of work differs

Questions we might ask: Are these numbers different from the state or region as a whole? How can we use these data? What data can we bring to the table that supplements this

information?

49

STARK RESULTS

50

State numbers? You can see this on the county page

51

Stark is doing very well in the region

We can pull standardized numbers on key metrics from dashboard

Comparison data are available on the site itself Counties or regions can use the data in conjunction with

other resources to ask critical questions about impact of programs are variables of interest.
