Exploring Evidence and Practice in Providing Equitable Job Training

Join us for a conversation on strategies for advancing equity in job-training programs. This session will bring together researchers and practitioners to discuss approaches to improving equity in job training for underrepresented and underserved communities. During this event, speakers will discuss the importance of equity in job training and review evidence-based strategies that improve job training programs for underrepresented and underserved groups. Moreover, the speakers will discuss their experience and perspective on moving the needle on equity in job training and share lessons learned. This event builds upon guidance issued by DOL in TEGL 21-22 on increasing equitable service access and outcomes for job seekers in WIOA Adult and Dislocated Worker programs. The Department of Labor’s Chief Evaluation Office and the Employment and Training Administration’s Office of Workforce Investment are jointly hosting this session.
