Action Brief
On the Job Training (OJT), Employed Worker Training (EWT), Adult Work Experience (AWE), and Other Contracts with Board Members Background Florida Statute 445.007 and CareerSource Florida (CSF) Policy concerning regional workforce board contracting states that any contract between a regional workforce board and a member of that board who may benefit financially or that has any relationship with the contracting vendor must be approved at Board level and reported to CSF, and if over $25,000 must be approved by CSF prior to executing the contract. Recommendation Recognizing that the board convenes on a quarterly basis, and to be able to meet business needs in a timely and efficient manner, staff has worked closely with the employer(s) listed below to identify their currently known and subsequently anticipated OJT, EWT AWE training needs, and other contracts. Where there certainly may be other opportunities presented at future board meetings, by approving this request today, CareerSource Brevard (CSB) will be able to assist these business customers. Staff recommends Board approval of the following annual employee health insurance premium renewal contract: Business Name: Health First Health Plans, Inc. Board Member: Paula Just Total Not to Exceed: $168,500 The annual renewal contract term will be November 1, 2015 – October 31, 2016. Action Approve or deny contract recommendations for Health First Health Plans, Inc., for the annual employee health insurance premium renewal.

Action Brief Request for Waiver of 50% WIA Individual Training Account (ITA) Reserve Requirement for Program Year 2014-2015 Background Since 2000, Florida Law [s. 445.003(3)(a)1., F.S.] has required: At least 50 percent of the Title I funds for Adults and Dislocated Workers that are passed through to regional workforce boards shall be allocated to Individual Training Accounts unless a regional workforce board obtains a waiver from CareerSource Florida (CSF). Tuition and fees qualify as Individual Training Account expenditures, as do other programs developed by regional workforce boards in compliance with policies of CSF. Effective July 1, 2012, Chapter 2012-29, L.O.F. reduced the types of expenditures authorized for ITAs. It did not change the 50% ITA reserve requirement or CSF’s authority to grant a waiver of the requirement. Authorized ITA expenditures now only include tuition, books and fees of training providers and “other training services prescribed and authorized by the Workforce Investment Act.” The previous law was interpreted to also authorize expenditures for the various core, intensive and supportive services related to training programs. This allowed the remaining non-reserved funds to be used for other services and initiatives. The state has set up a sliding scale for waivers this year. The sliding scale for Region 13 shows that our funding has had a 29.95% cut which qualifies us for a waiver to 30% on ITA’s for PY 15-16. Recommendation The Executive Committee recommends again submitting a one year waiver extension request that would reduce the ITA reserve requirement to 30% for Program Year 2014-2015. This is the same waiver that was granted to CSB in the last three program years. Action Approve or modify the Executive Committee recommendation to seek a one year waiver extension from the CSF Board to reduce the ITA reserve requirement to 30% of WIA Adult and Dislocated Worker funds to be expended in Program Year 2014-2015.

August 18, 2015 Consent Agenda Brief
WIOA Youth Program Design Background CareerSource Brevard (CSB) is working on the modification of the NextGen youth program so that it’s more in line with the new Workforce Innovation and Opportunity Act (WIOA) requirements. Some, but not all of the new WIOA requirements are:
• Prioritizing services to out-of-school youth (75% of funding)
• A youth in Adult Education, YouthBuild and Job Corps are now considered Out-of-School
• Heavy emphasis is placed on work based training activities with the requirement to spend 20% of youth funds (after admin) on work based training efforts. This equates to the majority of CSBs youth training funds
Overview of Key Changes
• Eliminates the two track design and creates three cohorts o Out Of School Youth (OOS-DF) – Youth that have a High School Diploma (HSD) or
GED and can be engaged in Dynamic Futures Work Readiness training (takes the place of the current Foundations training)
o Out Of School Youth (OOS) – Partner Programs – Youth who are participating in Adult Education, Project Search or YouthBuild
o In School (IS) Youth • Eliminates the Recruiter position and creates a position that works with the business
community to establish work-based training opportunities for NextGen Youth • Increases services to businesses due to a focus on employment as one of the two primary
indicators of performance • Eliminates scholarship funding for school – will have to be co-enrolled in WIOA Adult to
receive funding • Engages young adults near completion of an education program vs. at the beginning • Significantly reduces funding for support services and incentives • If the youth is OOS and does not have a HSD or GED, they will be referred to either through
Adult Ed or YouthBuild for completion The Workforce Operations Committee approved the youth program design for the Consent Agenda of the Board of Directors meeting. Action Approve the Workforce Operations Committee recommendation for the new Youth Program Design.

Consent Agenda Brief
Staffing Agency Contracts
Background The current five year staffing contracts for providing a broad range of staffing services including the temporary placement of adults and youth into subsidized work-based experiences and temporary workers for National Dislocated Worker Grants is set to expire.
CSB Board staff has evaluated 3 proposals submitted in response to an Invitation to Negotiate solicitation to procure a broad range of staffing services and determined B&B Business Solutions, d/b/a Spherion Staffing, LLC as well as JMark Inc. of Central Florida d/b/a Manpower were the most advantageous to CSB taking in to consideration their qualifications, price and other criteria set forth the in the solicitation and recommends that CSB awards 4-year Indefinite Delivery/Indefinite Quantity (ID/IQ) contracts to both vendors. Each contract would be negotiated and issued using a 1 year initial term with 3 one-year options to extend the term of performance.
The Executive Committee has reviewed Board Staff recommendations and recommends awarding ID/IQ staffing services contracts to B&B Business Solutions, d/b/a Spherion Staffing, LLC, and JMark Inc. of Central Florida d/b/a Manpower using a 1 year initial term with 3 one-year options to extend the term of performance for a total contract term of 4 years.
Please note: Board staff does not anticipate the necessity of committing funding in excess of $145,000 per year for staffing services. However funding levels and requirements may change and the President has authority to act upon such funding level changes to allow for rapid response to program funding.
Action Approve or deny Executive Committee recommendation to award 4-year ID/IQ contracts to B&B Business Solutions, d/b/a Spherion Staffing, LLC, and JMark Inc. of Central Florida d/b/a Manpower to provide a broad range of staffing services on an as-needed basis.

Information Brief
Budget Update for Program Year (PY) 2015-2016 Background In May the CSB Board approved a budget of $8,257,400 for PY 15-16. That budget had a 35% ITA expenditure level which the Board has agreed we should strive to meet for PY 15-16. The PY 14-15 year-end close out provided additional unobligated funds of $94,500 to the budget. The overall impact is the CSB budget went from $8,257,400 to $8,351,900. Due to timing issues, two technology items were carried forward from the PY 14-15 budget, a final $30,000 Content Central payment and a $20,000 server storage upgrade, leaving a current unobligated budget balance of $44,500. Senior staff are reviewing budget items that were initially reduced and in accordance with the Board’s authority, the President will authorize adding funds to operations once priorities have been established. Currently, outreach, overnight travel, and NAWB registrations have been identified as areas to restore. This information will be shared with the County Manager in August.

Information Brief
Performance Funding Model for PY 15-16 Background CareerSource Florida has developed a new funding model for awarding performance incentive funds to Regional Boards for PY 15-16. The new model removes the Region to Region comparisons used in previous models and takes into consideration regional socio-economic conditions, including but not limited to: unemployment rate, population density, per capita income, etc. that may affect performance outside the regions control. Participation in the funding model is a Regional decision and does not impact the normal funding amounts received by the region, but can provide performance incentive funds to the region. THE MEASURES Placement Rate and Time to Earnings Metrics are calculated quarterly. All others are calculated annually. In the following descriptions the minimum threshold (MT) and targets (T) for PY 15-16 are shown as MT/T Short Horizon Measures Placement Rate – (15%/20%) How successful we are at placing people in jobs? Metric is simply the fraction of people that entered the system without a job in one quarter who had earnings in the next quarter. Time to Earnings – (2.19/1.64 quarters) How long does it take to get people employed? Lower numbers are good here since the strategy is to exit to avoid a longer time to earnings. However, if they are in training and get a higher wage upon completion, then the metrics for Earnings for Dollars Spent and Average Earnings would go up. For the Time to Earnings metric, lower is better indicating that the customer moved from no earnings to positive earnings faster. Cost per Employed Exit – ($679/$509) How much on average is spent to get people employed? All expenditures divided by all customers who exited the system with positive earnings during quarter of exit. Lower is better for this metric as it indicates fewer dollars spent to employ a customer. Business Engagement – (600/800) How many businesses are engaged with an intensive service? Number of businesses served with an intensive service that is identified in SalesForce/ divided by the Region 13 apportioned share of 30,000 statewide businesses with 5 or more employees and CSB’s share of WIA funds received. These businesses receive a survey (1 per quarter up to 4) that will go toward setting the baseline for a long horizon measure. The business engagement scores don’t go into the Improvement payout for PY 15-16 but will count toward the Excellence payout. Long Horizon – (None of these are part of the PY 15-16 payout) Earnings per Dollar Spent – ($14.30/$19.10) How successful are we at turning expenditures into earnings for people? Looks at earnings two quarters following exit, which is similar to the federal measures. This is not an hourly wage but rather a result of dividing total wages by dollars spent.
10 of 51
Average Earnings – ($4,244/$5,659) Total earnings of all exiters in the two quarters following exit quarter divided by total exiters. This metric is similar to federal measures. Customer Satisfaction – Satisfaction results of Businesses Surveyed in Business Engagement Measure. This measure will not be used until PY 16-17. Regions will be awarded additional credit towards performance metrics for serving certain populations of individuals with barriers to employment and individuals more at-risk of not connecting to the labor market, as identified by WIOA:
• formerly incarcerated • homeless • veterans • individuals with disabilities

THE TIE MODEL
This method uses a TIE model where performance is rewarded based on:
1) Regions ability to meet a global performance Target 2) Regions ability to show continuous Improvement 3) Regions ability to perform at the top of the system Excellence
Target – Has three components as listed below and demonstrated in the following table –
a) Target based on previous year performance standardized to 100 b) Minimum Threshold 75% of Target. You must meet this minimum threshold on all measures to receive
any award funding, and c) Global Target (400 (100 for each of 4 metrics for FY 2015))
REGION PERFORMANCE Minimum

Note: Had any one of the Actuals been below 75 then Funding Awarded would have been No regardless of the Global Score.
11 of 51
The goal here is to a) meet or exceed the minimum threshold on each metric and b) leverage CSB strengths to exceed the Global Target.
Improvement – is the Global Performance Score this year relative to the Global Performance Score last year. The Board that exceeds the previous year’s score by the largest amount is the Most Improved Board. Top 8 improved boards receive performance funding.
Excellence – the most Excellent Board is the Board with the highest Global Performance Score. Again, top 8 Excellent boards receive performance funding.
PERFORMANCE REWARDS
Performance Rewards for meeting Target will be proportionate to the regional share of formula funding the region receives. So a region that receives 10% of the federal dollars would receive 10% of the amount allocated for performance rewards.
CareerSource Brevard’s funding is $5,088,094, which is 2.6% of the federal dollars allocated to the state and therefore, $48,265 is the amount available for meeting minimum Thresholds.
Performance Rewards for continuous Improvement will be awarded to the top 8 performing regions and will be distributed in a way that allows the top performing region to receive a larger percent of the pool than the 8th ranked region (the amount allocated to the 8th most-improved region may not be less than 60 percent of the award for the most improved region).
Performance Rewards for Excellence will be distributed in the same manner and proportions as those for continuous improvement shown above.
PROS
There is a substantial amount of money to be awarded in PY 15-16 for these measures
Several of the measures are common to the federal measures so it will not detract from meeting federal measures
Region 13’s historical information on the measures indicates thresholds would be met. Additionally, historical information shows Region 13 would not have made the top 8 Improvement last year. CSB would have made #4 for Excellence last year. Therefore, theoretically, Region 13 would have earned $292,089.

CONS
There is no real way to know what processes impacted last year’s measures or would impact this year’s measures to lead us to again improve or excel in the measures.
With the exception of Business Engagement and Customer Satisfaction, the measures are based on Wage data which is typically not available until 3 to 6 months after the end of the reporting requirements which will make it difficult to track in a real time setting.
There is an all or nothing engagement with the measures in that CSB is participating in all measures or in none of them.
The measures will be publicized whether a region is participating or not in the performance funding model.
Action Taken:
As per CSB Bylaws, acting as the full Board, the Executive Committee approved CSB’s participation in the Performance Funding Model for PY 15-16

Information Brief End of Year Contractor Performance PY 2014-2015 Background The CSB Workforce Operations contract is cost reimbursement for direct program costs, however, corporate costs and profit are withheld from the Contractor until measurable performance outcomes are achieved. Payments of withheld costs are available to the Contractor to earn on a quarterly basis. Using measures approved by the Board, corporate costs are withheld until A) 8 out of 10 of the minimum performance standards tied to employer and job seeker measures are met (table below) and, B) obtaining an overall system score of 90% on Career Center Standards. Table 1 shows the performance standards with the Minimum and Accelerated Goals for Contractor payments. The Performance Rate is shown with a red background if the minimum measure was missed and with a green background if the accelerated rate was met or exceeded. Performance that met the minimum but not accelerated is shown with a normal background. Because these measures are unique to Brevard there is no longer a comparison to performance ranking in other regions. Payment of withheld profit uses a performance measurement model based on the following elements: A) meeting or exceeding 5 out of 10 criteria tied to the State Quarterly MMR, expenditure of 90% of the scholarship unit budget, and 2 measures tied to completing staff training for the Business Engagement Toolkit and entering employer data in SalesForce; B) meeting or exceeding 5 out of 10 of the accelerated performance standards tied to employer and job seeker criteria and C) meeting or exceeding a minimum score of 75 on a Board performance evaluation related to programmatic monitoring results. PY 2014-15 Performance Results The Contractor succeeded in meeting or exceeding the performance criteria and was paid all withheld costs.

Information Brief
Individual Training Account Vendor Procurement
Background The Workforce Innovation Opportunity Act (WIOA) requires interested training providers to participate in an evaluative procurement process to be placed on the CareerSource Brevard (CSB) list of training vendors (ITA Vendors List). Training is provided through an Individual Training Account (ITA). This process allows for WIOA required customer choice for training vendors.

Information Brief
Volunteer Income Tax Assistance (VITA)
Background In partnership with the United Way of Brevard (UW), VITA is a program that helps low-to-moderate income workers earning less than $53,000 by providing free tax preparation assistance and electronic filing. CareerSource Brevard supplies office space and coordination for these services to be conducted in the CSB Career Centers located in Rockledge and Palm Bay. United Way volunteers prepared tax returns for low-to-moderate income workers saving them the cost of tax preparation and helping them claim all the tax credits for which they are eligible. The purpose of this brief is to provide information about the program and outcomes provided for Brevard County residents. Program Outcomes Information provided in 2015 is for the calendar tax year ending on December 31, 2014. Per UW “VITA volunteers prepared 2,317 returns. These efforts had community-wide impact of $3.1M (including Earned Income Tax Credit and dollars saved in tax prep fees)”. (Reported by UW) CSB tax sites were open 2 days per week during the tax season. The following is a comparison of CSB only activity comparing 2013 with 2014.

Employer Training Grants: Incumbent (IWT) & Quick Response (QRT)
Background
CareerSource Florida (CSF), formerly Workforce Florida, Inc. administers two training grant initiatives to help businesses and workers advance and maintain competitiveness and technological skills.
Incumbent Worker Training Quick Response Training Incumbent Worker Training (IWT) provides funding for customized training for existing for-profit businesses. Businesses applying for the Florida IWT’s must be in operation for one year prior to the application date, have at least, one full time employee, demonstrate financial viability and be current on all state tax obligations. Funding priority is given to businesses with 25 or fewer employees, located in distressed Rural, Urban Inner-City Areas or Enterprise Zones in qualified targeted industries. Priority is also given to grant proposals that represent a significant layoff avoidance strategy and an upgrade in employee skills.
Quick Response Training (QRT) provides funding for customized training to new or expanding businesses. The goal of the program is to retain and attract businesses creating new, high-quality jobs. These grants are structured to “respond quickly” to meet the business’s training objectives. Program requirements include that new, existing or expanding Florida business produce an exportable good or service, create new, full-time, permanent jobs in qualified target industries, meet certain wage requirement and require training of less than 24 months. QRT grants must be done in coordination with a local training institution
CareerSource Brevard (CSB) guides companies to both of these programs and tracks the notifications provided by CSF. CSB staff is instrumental in educating and/or guiding business organizations to/through the process. Local performance is reviewed regularly and presented as follows:

Measure 2C Host Regional Business Summit A Regional Business Summit will be held October 29, 2015 at the Florida Hotel and Convention Center. CareerSource Boards are planning to highlight what the CareerSource network provides to businesses. Jason Guy will be the moderator for the event. With a panel presentation, we plan to show a success story clip about the subject in between changing of panel guests. Ms. Stratton will share this information with her network of small businesses. Last year this event was held at Port Canaveral. For HR professionals, there is a HR continuing education credit which will be offered. CSB will network through schools to share this event with students and offer reduced price tickets to the students. Measure 3D: Clean Cities Training Focused on New Hires A one year no cost extension has been granted by the United States Department of Labor. Continuing this grant allows CSB to think outside the box and move away from first responder training into the hospitality and tourism sector focusing on sustainability in the industry. Utilizing the current Work Experience program with this grant, CSB was able to obtain Brevard Public School Board approval to create a position for an Energy Resource Conservation Specialist. The candidate selected was a disabled former aerospace worker with in-depth knowledge in several energy-type areas. In less than six months, BPS has experienced over $150,000 in energy savings, much greater than his salary, of which CSB pays 50%. CSB was recognized at a recent Brevard County Public School Board meeting to highlight the success. Another goal of this partnership is to get Brevard Schools and Government to utilize our system for job openings. Measure 4C: Career Readiness On Monday, June15th, the Juniors to Jobs (J2J) program begins. This is CSB’s and the City of Palm Bay’s second year doing this program. Students and business alike must reside in Palm Bay to quality. Participants are given one week of intense Foundations Training, then interview for pre-identified work site employers. Employers pay only $640 per participant over the 5 week work experience training. Ms. Tookes offered to contact Long Doggers of Palm Bay to see if they would be interested in being a worksite employer. CSB is still looking for more worksites in addition a few more local leaders to be panelists to share their stories of how they became who they are today. Ms. Tookes volunteered to be a panelist. CSB is pursuing working with ‘The Corridor’ to do a career counselor expo event where CSB would bring in career counselors from large universities around the nation to have employers come and talk with them about the talent they are graduating and the types of jobs where those employers are desperately seeking talent. Years ago, this method was very successful because it catered to the education people and opened several doors for recruiting. CSB is looking for businesses to sponsor this event and to tell us which universities the businesses would like to see at the expo. MIT was contacted and they are excited to participate. This mechanism is especially beneficial with the unemployment rates dropping. In Brevard County and throughout the nation.

Growing the Business of the Board A matrix of grants, unrestricted revenues and partnerships was shared to highlight ways in which CSB is growing the business of the Board. The AARP Foundation Grant was highlighted with July 15, 2015 being the first orientation date scheduled. Our region was selected for this award because of our willingness to blend our services with educational resources and external sources. We are building a relationship with the Brevard Hispanic Group to help us obtain more of the Hispanic population. The AARP Foundation Grant focuses only on the woman’s income, not the family income, which greatly opens this opportunity to underemployed and unemployed women. Ms. Beam shared that Eastern Florida is trying to reach out the students for the LEAP program. The program focuses on portfolios for those with work experiences, testing out of courses and prior learning assessments. Ms. Beam will let CSB know who the Eastern point of contact is going to be. Youth Eligibility and Performance Comparison WIA/WIOA With the new Workforce Innovation and Opportunity Act (WIOA), youth eligibility and performance measures have changed. A comparison chart with some of the changes was shared. Discussion ensured. A recommendation was to have high achievers in their junior and senior year to mentor our youth. Ms. Tookes expressed an interest in attending these committee meetings on a regular basis.
