This Training and Employment Guidance Letter (TEGL) 08-19, "Workforce Innovation and Opportunity Act (WIOA) Title I Training Provider Eligibility and State List of Eligible Training Providers (ETPs) and Programs" provides guidance and describes requirements relating to the eligibility provisions for the WIOA State list of Eligible Training Providers.
The purpose of this guidance is to identify actions that states can take to meet requirements for training providers, program eligibility, and the state ETP list in WIOA Section 122 and 20 CFR part 680. WIOA and its regulations established the allowable types of training, including both work-based and classroom instruction, with the goal of ensuring provider performance, job-driven training, informed consumer choice, continuous improvement, and cost-effective investment of public funds. This guidance replaces Training and Employment Guidance Letter (TEGL) 41-14, Workforce Innovation and Opportunity Act (WIOA or Opportunity Act) Title I Training Provider Eligibility Transition, and the subsequent TEGL 41-14, Change 1.
