LEGISLATIVE COUNSEL'S DIGEST
SB 118, Lieu. Unemployment insurance: education and workforce
investment systems.
Existing law provides that the California Workforce Investment
Board is responsible for assisting the Governor in the development,
oversight, and continuous improvement of California's workforce
investment system. Existing law further provides that the board must
assist the Governor in targeting resources to specified high-wage
industry sectors and providing guidance to ensure that services
reflect the needs of those sectors.
This bill would provide that the board is also responsible for
assisting the Governor in the alignment of the education and
workforce investment systems to the needs of the 21st century
workforce and the promotion of the development of a well-educated and
highly skilled 21st century economy and workforce. This bill would
require the board to assist the Governor in targeting resources to
specified industry clusters that provide economic security and
leverage state and federal funds to ensure that resources are
invested in activities that meet the needs of specified industry
sectors and advance the education and employment of students and
workers so they can meet the specified needs of the state, its
regional economies, and leading industry sectors.
Existing law requires the board, in collaboration with specified
state and local partners, and the local workforce investment boards
to develop a specified strategic workforce plan, updated at least
every 5 years, to address the state's economic, demographic, and
workplace needs and to meet the single state plan requirement of the
Workforce Investment Act of 1998.
This bill would require, as part of the strategic workforce plan,
the creation of a California Industry Sector Initiative that will
accomplish specified tasks, including aligning and leveraging
federal, state, and local Workforce Investment Act funding streams,
identifying specified industry sectors and clusters, providing
skills-gap analysis, and establishing specified eligibility criteria
for the Workforce Investment Act eligible training provider list.
This bill would also make related changes.
This bill would incorporate additional changes to Section 14013 of
the Unemployment Insurance Code proposed by AB 285 that would become
operative if this bill and AB 285 are enacted and this bill is
enacted last.

(g) "Evidence-based" means making use of policy research as a
basis for determining best policy practices. Evidence-based
policymakers adopt policies that research has shown to produce
positive outcomes, in a variety of settings, for a variety of
populations over time. Successful, evidence-based programs deliver
quantifiable and sustainable results. Evidence-based practices differ
from approaches that are based on tradition, belief, convention, or
anecdotal evidence.

market.
(k) (1) "Industry or sector partnership" means a workforce
collaborative that organizes key stakeholders in a targeted industry
cluster into a working group that focuses on the workforce needs of
the targeted industry cluster. An industry or sector partnership
organizes the stakeholders connected with a specific local or
regional industry--multiple firms, labor groups, education and
training providers, and workforce and education systems--to develop
workforce development strategies within the industry. Successful
sector partnerships leverage partner resources to address both
short-term and long-term human capital needs of a particular sector,
including by analyzing current labor markets and identifying barriers
to employment within the industry, developing cross-firm skill
standards, curricula, and training programs, and developing
occupational career ladders to ensure workers of all skill levels can
advance within the industry.

products or provide similar services using somewhat similar business
processes, and are closely linked by workforce needs, within a
regional labor market.
(m) "Local labor federation" means a central labor council that is
an organization of local unions affiliated with the California Labor
Federation or a local building and construction trades council
affiliated with the State Building and Construction Trades Council.
(n) "Sector strategies" means methods of prioritizing investments
in competitive and emerging industry sectors and industry clusters on
the basis of labor market and other economic data indicating
strategic growth potential, especially with regard to jobs and
income, and exhibit the following characteristics:
(1) Focus workforce investment in education and workforce training
programs that are likely to lead to jobs providing economic security
or to an entry-level job with a well-articulated career pathway into
a job providing economic security.

Education, other appropriate state agencies, and local workforce
investment boards, shall develop a strategic workforce plan to serve
as a framework for the development of public policy, fiscal
investment, and operation of all state labor exchange, workforce
education, and training programs to address the state's economic,
demographic, and workforce needs. The strategic workforce plan shall
also serve as the framework for the single state plan required by the
federal Workforce Investment Act of 1998. The plan shall be updated
at least every five years.
(b) The state shall develop a California Industry Sector
Initiative that will serve as the cornerstone of the state plan and
provide a framework for state workforce investments and support for
sector strategies.
(c) The California Workforce Investment Board shall work
collaboratively with state and local partners to identify ways to
eliminate systemwide barriers and better align and leverage federal,
state, and local Workforce Investment Act funding streams and
policies to develop, support, and sustain regional alliances of
employers and workforce and education professionals who are working
to improve the educational pipeline, establish well-articulated
career pathways, provide industry-recognized credentials and
certificates, and address the career advancement needs of current and
future workers in competitive and emergent industry sectors and
clusters. The California Workforce Investment Board and its partners
shall work collaboratively to maximize state and local investments
and pursue other resources to address the skills-gap needs identified
pursuant to paragraph (3) of subdivision (d).
(d) In order to support the requirement of the plans in
subdivision (a), the California Workforce Investment Board shall do
the following:
(1) Annually identify industry sectors and industry clusters that
have a competitive economic advantage and demonstrated economic
importance to the state and its regional economies. In developing
this analysis, the California Workforce Investment Board shall
consider the expertise of local workforce investment boards in the
state's respective regional economies and shall encourage the local
workforce investment boards to identify industry sectors and industry
clusters that have a competitive economic advantage and demonstrated
economic importance in their respective local workforce investment
areas.
(2) Annually identify new dynamic emergent industry sectors and
industry clusters with substantial potential to generate new jobs and
income growth for the state and its regional economies. In
developing this analysis, the California Workforce Investment Board
shall consider the expertise of local workforce investment boards in
the state's respective regional economies and shall encourage the
local workforce investment boards to identify new dynamic emergent
industry sectors and industry clusters with substantial potential to
generate new jobs and income growth in their respective local
workforce investment areas.
(3) Provide an annual skills-gap analysis enumerating occupational
and skills shortages in the industry sectors and industry clusters
identified as having strategic importance to the state's economy and
its regional economies. In developing this analysis, the California
Workforce Investment Board shall consider the expertise of local
workforce investment boards in the state's respective regional
economies and shall encourage
the local workforce investment boards to conduct skills-gap
analysis for their respective local workforce investment areas.
Skills-gap analysis for the state and its regional economies shall
use labor market data to specify a list of high-priority, in-demand
occupations for the state and its regional economies. This list shall
be used to inform investment decisions and eligible training
provider policies.
(4) Establish, with input from local workforce investment boards
and other stakeholders, initial and subsequent eligibility criteria
for the federal Workforce Investment Act of 1998 eligible training
provider list that effectively directs training resources into
training programs leading to employment in high-demand,
high-priority, and occupations that provide economic security,
particularly those facing a shortage of skilled workers. The
subsequent eligibility criteria, to the extent feasible, shall use
performance and outcome measures to determine whether a provider is
qualified to remain on the list. At a minimum, initial and subsequent
eligibility criteria shall consider the following:
(A) The relevance of the training program to the workforce needs
of the state's strategic industry sectors and industry clusters.
(B) The need to plug skills gaps and skills shortages in the
economy, including skills gaps and skills shortages at the state and
regional level.
(C) The need to plug skills gaps and skills shortages in local
workforce investment areas.
(D) The likelihood that the training program will lead to job
placement in a job providing economic security or job placement in an
entry-level job that has a well-articulated career pathway or career
ladder to a job providing economic security.
(E) The need for basic skills and bridge training programs that
provide access to occupational skills training for individuals with
barriers to employment and those who would otherwise be unable to
enter occupational skills training.
(F) To the extent feasible, utilize criteria that measure training
and education provider performance, including, but not limited to,
the following:
(i) Measures of skills or competency attainment.
(ii) Measures relevant to program completion, including measures
of course, certificate, degree, licensure, and program of study rate
of completion.
(iii) For those entering the labor market, measures of employment
placement and retention.
(iv) For those continuing in training or education, measures of
educational or training progression.
(v) For those who have entered the labor market, measures of
income, including wage measures.
(G) The division of labor for making initial and subsequent
eligibility determinations under this division shall be modeled on
the division of labor envisioned in the federal Workforce Investment
Act of 1998 in that the state board shall establish, with input from
local workforce investment boards and other stakeholders, the initial
and subsequent eligibility procedures and criteria utilized by local
workforce investment boards to assess training provider performance.
The local boards shall have the authority to place and retain
training providers on the list, and shall provide relevant
performance data pertaining to the training provider criteria
established pursuant to this division to a state agency designated by
the Governor. The relevant state agency shall also have the
authority to remove training providers for nonperformance, provided
they do not meet the performance criteria established pursuant to
this division.
(H) If the state receives a waiver from the federal subsequent
eligibility provisions specified in the federal Workforce Investment
Act of 1998, the state workforce investment board shall establish its
own subsequent eligibility criteria that take into account all of
the criteria specified in subparagraphs (A) to (G), inclusive.
SEC. 6. Section 4.5 of this bill incorporates amendments to
Section 14013 of the Unemployment Insurance Code proposed by both
this bill and Assembly Bill 285. It shall only become operative if
(1) both bills are enacted and become effective on or before January
1, 2014, (2) each bill amends Section 14013 of the Unemployment
Insurance Code, and (3) this bill is enacted after Assembly Bill 285,
in which case Section 4 of this bill shall not become operative.
