Description:Job Training That Gets Results: Ten Principles of Effective Employment ProgramsMichael S. BernickRecognizing that training programs can't be all things to all people, Michael Bernick, a former director of California's Employment Development Department (EDD), sets out to show the types of training programs that do work and to describe for whom they work. He identifies ways to improve performance among Workforce Investment Act (WIA) contractors while exploring the best uses for state discretionary WIA funds. He also describes what it takes to make an effective career ladder program, how postemployment welfare retention or skill advancement programs can succeed, and the type of training that workers with disabilities must go through to get and retain jobs.
