Workforce Investment Opportunity Act

The Workforce Innovation and Opportunity Act (WIOA) is a U.S. law designed to strengthen workforce development and job training programs. It aims to connect job seekers with opportunities and enhance workforce skills to meet employer needs. WIOA promotes collaboration between various organizations, including education, labor, and business sectors, to provide resources and support for individuals seeking employment or career advancement. The law emphasizes support for underrepresented groups, helping them gain access to training, apprenticeships, and other resources that lead to better job prospects and economic growth.
