Local Area Plan 2024-2028

The Workforce Innovation and Opportunity Act (WIOA) serves as the federal legislation that governs the ARIZONA@WORK system, aiming to integrate services that facilitate the advancement of businesses and job seekers through strategic collaborations across various sectors seamlessly. WIOA aims to address the multifaceted needs of customers, encompassing access to employment, education, training and a range of support services.

WIOA requires each Local Workforce Development Board, in partnership with the appropriate chief local elected official (CEO), to develop and submit a comprehensive four-year local plan to the Workforce Arizona Council (20 CFR 679.560). Additionally, local plans must be modified at the end of the first two-year period of the four-year local plan to reflect changes in labor.

The 2024-2028 Local Area Plan went into effect on January 1, 2025, and is available on the ARIZONA@WORK website.
