Analysis/Side By Side

In December 2009, NCL prepared the 2009-2010 NCL Priorities for WIA Reauthorization and shared them with Senate staff working on a new reauthorization bill, as well as with staff from the offices of Patrick Kennedy (D-RI), Ruben Hinojosa (D-TX), Jim Webb (D-VA) and Sherrod Brown (D-OH).
Based on the National Center for Adult Education, Literacy, and Workforce Skills Policy Principles, NCL developed detailed Center Recommendations that provides examples as to how these policy principles might translate into legislative language. The Center Recommendations replace NCL’s recommendations found in NCL’s WIA Side-by-Side Analysis with respect to the National Institute for Literacy.
