Abstract: The WISPR System replaces the reporting and recordkeeping requirements of 7 Employment and Training programs: ES, VETS, WIA Title IB Adult, Dislocated Worker, and Youth, and TAA, and NEG’s. It replaces the following three OMB-approved information collections: 1205-0240, 1205-0420, and 1205-0392, which will be discontinued when the WISPR system is implemented July 2008. The goal is to ensure that the workforce system is clearly focused on results, which will help ensure that the system’s jobseeker and employer customers are effectively served. The Office of Management and Budget (OMB) and other Federal agencies developed a set of common performance measures; these common measures are integral to ETA’s performance accountability system and are the key results that ETA programs strive to achieve for their customers and to measure with a uniform information collection system.
