This program provides services for youth and adults in areas of work experience, skills training, educational and assessment services. WIA specifies three funding streams targeted to youth, adults, and dislocated workers, respectively. It provides for three basic levels of service referred to as core, intensive and training.

Core services include outreach, assessment, job search and placement assistance. Intensive services involve diagnostic testing, career planning, case management and prevocational skills training. Training services involve occupational skills and on-the-job training, skills upgrading and customized training. These services are provided through the JobLink Career Center at the Employment Security Commission.
