II. Approval of Minutes–A. Board members reviewed the minutes presented for the September & October meetings. Koukol motioned to

approve the meeting minutes of September 11, 2013. Gillespie seconded. The motion passed. Pilmer motioned to approve the minutes of October 24, 2013. Wetzel seconded. The motion passed.

III. Program Updates:A. WIA Financial Reports

1. WIA 12 Budget-Expenditure Summary Report – Maria Gonzalez provided an overview. The WIA 12 grantis 97% expended.

2. WIA 13 Budget-Expenditure Summary Report – The WIA 13 grant is beginning to be spent – mainly fortraining expenses.

3. Accelerated Training for Illinois Manufacturing (ATIM) Grant Expenditure Report – No ITA’s have beenissued yet. The costs expended so far have been for drug screenings. 35 individuals will be trained byMarch of 2015.

4. Trade Adjustment Assistance (TAA) Grant Expenditure Report – This grant is to assist workers who lostjobs due to imports

IV. New Business:A. Action Item: Acceptance of a Consortium WIB Staffing Model with support provided to the CEO’s in establishing an

Intergovernmental Agreement (IGA) as part of final implementation. – Katie Bata provided an overview of the work of the consortium committee. The Kane County Finance Department estimates this model saves $250,000 which can be given back in services to our clients. The model also improves efficiency, timeliness of reports and effectiveness of the board. Dr. David Sam motioned to approve the acceptance of a Consortium WIB Staffing Model with support provided to the CEO’s in establishing an Intergovernmental Agreement (IGA) as part of the 2

final implementation. Jim Pilmer seconded the motion. Christopher Mehochko asked for confirmation regarding is the vote to implement the final model or is it to allow a consortium model to be formed. Katie stated the logistical pieces will return to the board but not necessarily as a vote. Mehochko stated that Kendall County would need to have the Kendall County State’s Attorney Office review the documents. Chairman Lauzen said the Intergovernmental Agreement will go to all three counties and he expects state’s attorney’s offices for all three counties to review. Chairman Lauzen said he is grateful for all the support given by Chairman’s Metzger and Shaw. He said they also want to streamline and maximize the WIA dollars. The motion passed. Dan Koukol abstained.

B. Action Item: Approve provider for RVWIB Board of Director’s Insurance – Staff provided the board the three quotes obtained for Board of Director’s Insurance:

• Philadelphia Insurance Company through Lundstrom Insurance in Elgin, our current provider quoted$1325.

• A second quote from the Cincinnati Insurance company through Konan Insurance of $1178.• A third quote from the Great American Insurance Company through Weidemann Insurance, a former

provider of BOD insurance for the WIB, of $1385.This third quote is the highest quote for the same coverage as the other two plus the deductible is higher. The Executive Committee recommended accepting the lowest bid – Cincinnati Insurance Company in the amount of $1178. Jim Pilmer motioned to accept the recommendation of the Executive Committee. Joe Henning seconded. Dick Hawks stated that even though no claim has been filed it may be worth the extra money to stay with the current provider. Katie Bata read an email from Attorney Brandon Anderson: “I believe there is some benefit to staying with the Board’s current insurance provider. The current policy does cover employment claims (although it excludes wage claims) and there is certainly a possibility that a claim will be made under the current policy. If the Board has a relationship with a new provider, the current provider could be less than helpful in defending the case because there is no relationship to maintain (not being helpful is not the same as not defending against the claim - - it’s just a matter of how easily the process proceeds). Also, if the Board goes with a new provider, there is also the potential of some timing issues. If a claim is made before the end of the current policy, that’s one thing, but if the claim is made after the current policy expires, the former provider might point the finger at the new provider and the new provider would likely point their finger back at the old provider. The new provider might also take the position that the potential claim should have been disclosed in the application materials. None of these concerns are necessarily insurmountable roadblocks to going with a new provider, but it could make for a more difficult process. For that reason, I think this is something the executive committee should consider”. Pilmer and Henning retracted their motion and second. Schoenholtz motioned to accept the quote of our current provider – Philadelphia Insurance Company through Lundstrom Insurance in the amount of $1325. Kazanova seconded. The motion passed. Rick Zirk abstained.

C. Training Provider Certification Report – Since the board met last, three current training providers submitted new programs for approval and the Executive Committee approved them:

• Kishwaukee College – Certified Production Technician Program• Elgin Community College – an Associate’s Degree in Computer Integrated Manufacturing• Northern Illinois University – a Bachelors of Science Degree in Mathematics with an emphasis in Actuarial

Sciences and a Bachelor’s of Science Degree in Electrical Engineering.The Executive Committee also agreed to continue approving the issuing ITAs for BNA and LPN Programs and therefore J´Reneé Career Facilitation recertification for these two programs has been recertified.

V. Informational Items A. Digital Manufacturing Grant – Staff announced the DCEO is promoting a digital lab for manufacturing. At its core

the digital lab will be a physical and virtual place where manufacturers can demonstrate and learn about new technologies, workers can acquire needed skills and student can be inspired to pursue digital manufacturing careers. John Barr from DCEO stated this is an on-going effort of the state to promote manufacturing. An informational flyer was included in the board packet.

B. Manufacturing Youth Career Awareness Event – Board Member Lesa Norris and staff reported on the Manufacturing Youth Career Awareness Event held at Waubonsee Community College on November 1st. The event is spearheaded by the Valley Industrial Association. Workforce Investment Act Dollars were used to provide reimbursement to the schools for busing costs. 245 students attended from area high schools.

RIVER VALLEY WORKFORCE INVESTMENT BOARD ACTION ITEM DETAIL

New Business

A. Action Item: Authorize the negotiation of one-year contract extensions for the DeKalb County Adult and Dislocated Worker Service Providers (First Institute Training and Management and Kishwaukee College), with budgets and performance metrics for each contract extension to be submitted to the RVWIB for consideration/acceptance.

Background: First Institute Training and Management (FITM) and Kishwaukee College are the contracted WIA providers of Adult and Dislocated Worker services in DeKalb County. The two service providers were selected following a Request for Proposals (RFP) bid process completed in May 2012. Both contractors have delivered services through the better part of two contract cycles – Program Year 2012 (7/1/12 – 6/30/13) and Program Year 2013 (7/1/13 – 6/30/14), which leaves one final renewal period available under the RFP.

Recommendation: In order to maintain a continuity of service to DeKalb County residents, staff recommend that the contracts under which FITM and Kishwaukee College currently operate be extended through Program Year 2014 (7/1/14 – 6/30/15), with the budgets and performance metrics for each contract extension to be negotiated by staff and submitted to the RVWIB for consideration/acceptance.

New Business

B. Action Item: Acceptance of additional Program Year 2013 Dislocated Worker formula funding in the amount $111,231 from the IL Department of Commerce and Economic Opportunity (DCEO).

Background: The IL Department of Commerce and Economic Opportunity (DCEO) has released additional Dislocated Worker funding to workforce areas statewide to ensure adequate training funds are available to satisfy employer demand for skilled workers. The table below outlines how the funds are proposed to be used to support training for both job seekers and incumbent workers at-risk for layoff. Note that a portion of the additional 2013 funding is proposed to be “carried-in” to Program Year 2014 (which begins July 1st). This additional funding will help sustain services during the first quarter of the coming Program Year. This is helpful as a practical matter, since the amount of new (2014) funding that can be spent during the first quarter is expected to be somewhat limited.

Proposed Budget for Additional Dislocated Worker Funding Direct Training $80,086

Individual Training (ITAs) – Job Seekers $72,078 Incumbent Worker Training (IWT) – Workers with Layoff Risk $8,009

Administration (10%) $11,123 Funds Carried-In to Program Year 2014 $20,022 Total Dislocated Worker Allocation per DCEO $111,231

Recommendation: Accept the additional allocation of Dislocated Worker funds, with $80,086 of said allocation budgeted for direct training for Individual Training Accounts (ITAs) for unemployed job seekers and Incumbent Worker Training (IWT) for workers at-risk of dislocation, $11,123 for administration, and the remainder ($20,022) to be carried-in to the first quarter of Program Year 2014.

New Business

C. Action Item: Approve New Training Program Applications and Recertifications.

Background: All new training providers or program submissions must meet a set of criterion to be eligible to receive WIA funding. These include being accredited by a post-secondary body or industry-recognized standard along with an anticipated outcome of employment in a demand occupation through attainment of an occupational skills certificate, degree or industry-recognized certification/licensure. In addition, all approved training providers in the local area must have their individual programs recertified annually to ensure the training continues to lead WIA participants to in-demand occupations and certifications. Below is a summary of the new programs seeking approval, and those seeking recertification at this time.

New Programs – Four (4) new programs were submitted for approval from an existing eligible training provider (Waubonsee Community College) which were reviewed individually and met the established criterion (documentation attached).

1) Medical Billing & Coding2) Medical Billing & Coding + Medical Terminology3) Cisco Certified Network Associate4) Commercial Food Equipment Repair Technician Program5) Laboratory Technology Associates Degree in Applied Science

Program Recertification Requests – The three community colleges servicing the local area (Elgin Community College, Kishwaukee College and Waubonsee Community College) are due for their annual program recertification. It is anticipated that all existing programs offered by these providers (see attached list) will have occupational outcomes that continue to meet the in-demand/certification criteria. The programs are, therefore, eligible for recertification.

Recommendation: Approve the new training programs seeking certification and those seeking recertification as presented.

WIA Adult and Dislocated Worker Services Program Updates through 12/31/2013

Job seekers and individuals who are customers of the WIA workforce system can represent any age group, ethnic or racial group, or socio-economic status. They may be new to the workforce, employed, unemployed, or dislocated. Kane County has responded to this diverse population with widely different needs and expectations by offering universal access at the workNet Centers and re-employment services under WIA to two eligible populations – Adults and Dislocated Workers.

Universal Services – All residents have access to employment related services that are universal

in nature – no eligibility criteria needs to be met. Services include information about job vacancies, career options, employment trends, instruction on conducting a job search and writing a resume and access to resources such as computers and internet.

workNet Resource Center User Snapshot

Kane County 6,309 -16% Change Compared to Last Year

DeKalb County 1,611 -40% Change Compared to Last Year

Kendall County 130 +69% Change Compared to Last Year

With the loss of the Illinois Department of Employment Security as a partner in the DeKalb workNet Center, a resulting user reduction has occurred and its likely DeKalb’s current service level will be the new benchmark for universal access. For Kendall County, the expanded promotion of the workNet center and its services has yielded additional job seekers turning to the center for assistance.

Information Sessions are regularly scheduled and provide job seekers an overview of WIA services

including local job search trends and tips, program eligibility and occupational training options. All job seekers interested in enrolling in services must attend one of the sessions held weekly at the following locations – no appointment required.

Elgin workNet Center --------------- Monday at 1:30pm Gail Borden Library ----------------- Thursday at 1:30pm North Aurora workNet Center ---- Monday 1:30pm and Thursdays at 10:00 am Yorkville workNet Center ---------- Walk in sessions available during center hours based on need DeKalb workNet Center ----------- Wednesday at 1:30pm

Intensive Services – All job seekers pursing an “intensive” level of services (beyond universal)

and/or training must meet eligibility criteria either as Adults or Dislocated Workers.

Adults – Eligible adults must be age 18 or older and a lower-income individual (takes into account the

last six months of earnings) with food stamp or TANF recipients being automatically eligible. Often the eligible adults have limited attachment to the labor force and may have significant barriers to obtaining employment.

Dislocated Workers – Is an individual that has been laid off and is eligible to collect unemployment

insurance. The program targets individuals that are from a declining occupation or industry or have been unemployed for more than 26 weeks. Often these workers require re-training for rapid re-employment.

With the sequestration in the first quarter of the program year along with the government shutdown in October, new training ITAs were issued starting in November and are trending lower as a result. However; during the period of non-issuance, job seekers were evaluated and received counseling to make occupational training decisions in preparation for the November ITA release. With the robust pipeline of training ready job seekers, Kane County will achieve its ITA benchmarks for PY2013.

WIA Youth Services Program Updates through 12/31/2013

WIA youth programs are intended to provide age-appropriate services targeted to economically disadvantaged youth age 14-21 that face barriers to staying in-school or finding employment. Youth are classified in two categories, and WIA requires a minimum of 30% of the youth program funds to be expended on out of school youth programs and services.

In School Youth – a youth enrolled in a high school or alternative high school program.

Out of School Youth – a youth who has graduated high school or has dropped out of high school. Youth Participation Youth Breakdown

Youth services for Kane, Kendall and DeKalb communities are delivered through a network of service providers with oversight provided by Kane County. Youth engagement/participation is measured monthly with each provider to ensure enrollment/participation goals are achieved along with a full expenditure of funds by June 30th. With the 2nd quarter marking the halfway point of the program year, the overall enrollment level of 66% exceeds the midpoint benchmark.

Trade Adjustment Assistance (TAA) The TAA Program assists workers who have lost their jobs as a result of increased imports or shifts in production out of the US. Similar to WIA, participants receive a variety of re-employment services including occupational training and On-the-Job Training (OJT). The TAA program offers scholarship awards that are tailored to an individual’s training program costs and often include mileage reimbursement. Additionally, those in full-time occupational training receive income support which extends the standard unemployment insurance assistance to supply monetary assistance throughout the duration of their training.

Participation Snapshot: Total Program Participants – 17

Attending Occupational Training – 7 Employed Receiving Wage Subsidy – 3

Workers from Siemens in Elgin laid off in December 2013 are eligible to receive TAA services and Kane County is currently working to identify employment vacancies with area manufacuturers for placement opportunties.

Rapid Re-Employment Initiative using On-the-Job Training (OJT)

Program launching now. The OJT Program expedites the transition of recently laid-off workers into new employment opportunities to minimize the period of unemployment and its negative ripple effects. Participating employers have access to a pool of “job-ready” candidates from which to hire, and the funds needed to cover the cost of “On-the-Job” training for those new hires. 45 dislocated workers are expected to be re-employed under the initiative and any recently laid off workers should contact Renata Robinson at 630.966.1435, ext. 40078 for transition assistance. 32
