Westmoreland-Fayette Workforce Development Board PY 2021-2024 WIOA Multi-Year Local Area Plan
Attachment 2: WIOA Local Workforce Development System Organizational Chart Model
The organizational chart is for the benefit of the public and must be used to describe the attributes of the local workforce development system. This chart should
be reviewed annually for revisions. The local board may supplement this model with clarifying charts. If multiple pages are needed to represent the local system,
ensure that “Governance/Administrative” and “Service Delivery” information is displayed on separate pages respectfully. Use of model sub-titles is required.
Publicly post the organizational chart with the local plan. A WIOA plan modification is not required when revision occurs with this document.
