Waubonsee Community College Career and Technical Education Grant Analyst, Dr. David Beer, has been asked to share his perspectives as part of an Illinois Community College Board Task Advisory Group focused on the new Federal Workforce Innovation and Opportunity Act (WIOA).

Illinois will have seven Task Advisory Groups providing local perspective and input regarding the implementation of WIOA, which was signed into law in July 2014 and which officially takes effect next month.

As part of his work with the group, Dr. Beer is currently reviewing four draft policies related to WIOA participant eligibility.
