2.4.4 Funding and File Coordination for Co-Enrolled Participants

Effective August 1, 2021

When a TAA participant is co-enrolled with a one-stop partner program the TAA career planner should work with the appropriate partner program staff to coordinate services for the participant. Efforts should be made to avoid duplication of services such as using assessment results completed by the partner program and developing a joint Individualized Employment Plan (IEP).¹

When a participant in the TAA Program is co-enrolled in another one-stop partner program, TAA Program funds must be the primary source of funds used to serve them² and TAA funding must be used to provide any services that are allowable under the TAA Program. However, TAA Program participants who are co-enrolled in partner programs, particularly with the WIOA Dislocated Worker Program, benefit from access to certain career services, supportive services and post-employment follow-up services offered by those programs that TAA Program funds do not support.³

If a participant is already engaged in training through the Dislocated Worker Program, or another one-stop partner program, at the time they become eligible for the TAA Program and their training is approved under the TAA Program, the costs for their training must shift to the TAA Program at the next logical break in training, such as the end of a semester.⁴ Training plans approved under the Dislocated Worker Program or another one-stop partner program may be amended by the TAA career planner to provide a participant with additional training services.⁵

For participants co-enrolled with a one-stop partner program that also uses ASSET as its management information system (MIS) (WIOA Adult, Dislocated Worker, and Youth Programs, Wagner-Peyser Employment Service Program, and Jobs for Veterans State Grant) TAA career planners must upload any documentation that is relevant to both programs to the participant's ASSET case file to help ensure coordinated service delivery. Either the TAA Program or the Dislocated Worker Program must ensure any credential or measurable skill gain that the participant attains is recorded in ASSET. To see how co-enrollment impacts the credential attainment rate and the measurable skill gain performance indicators, see WIOA Titles I-A and I-B Policy & Procedure Manual, Chapters 11.5.7 Credential Attainment Rate and 11.5.8 Measurable Skill Gain.
