Workforce Solutions Greater Dallas follows the requirements of the Workforce Innovation and Opportunity Act (WIOA) §108 and the federal regulations outlined in 20 C.F.R. §679.550, which mandate that Workforce Development Board Plans be updated on a four-year cycle. These comprehensive plans guide the Board’s efforts to meet local workforce needs, aligning strategies with both federal and state priorities to ensure that employers and job seekers receive effective support.

The specific content requirements for these Board plans are detailed in 20 C.F.R. §679.550 as well as the Texas Government Code §§2308.262, 2308.303, and 2308.304. In addition to the full four-year cycle, annual Board plan modifications are necessary to address evolving workforce trends, incorporate new state and local directives, and ensure the plan remains responsive to changing economic and labor market conditions.

These updates ensure the Workforce Solutions Greater Dallas Board remains aligned with both federal and state workforce development goals, providing a flexible and adaptive approach to serve the needs of employers and workers in the region.
