FUNDING ALLOCATIONS AND PROGRAM INCOME

WIA was enacted in 1998 and stipulated that the Governor of each State designate workforce investment areas.  The Ridge administration designated the 3 counties of Washington, Greene and Beaver to jointly establish services for area residents.  Local Elected Officials of said counties authorized and approved the Chief Elected Officials Agreement that jointly established the Southwest Corner Workforce Investment Board and named the Washington Greene County Job Training Agency, Inc. as fiscal agent and administrative entity for the Southwest Corner Investment Area.  The agreement also designated Job Training for Beaver County, Inc. as the entity responsible to carry out program activities as the Workforce Investment Title I Operator with Beaver County.

Job Training for Beaver County employs 21 individuals, including four (4) management and seventeen (17) staff members.  Seven (7) staff members are located at the Center Township Administrative Office, 3582 Brodhead Road, Suite 201, Monaca, PA.  The Workforce Investment Act that funds operations requires that Title I operator must have a presence in the local One-Stop recognized in Pennsylvania as the CareerLink.  As such, remaining fifteen (15) staff members operate out of the Beaver County PA CareerLink, 2103 Ninth Avenue, Beaver Falls, PA.
