Explanation

Background: The Central Ohio Workforce Investment Corporation (COWIC) is responsible for determining policy on a variety of workforce issues, recommending certification of training program providers and overseeing the establishment of the JobSight office centers for workforce development. The goal of the Central Ohio Workforce Investment Corporation is to ensure that Central Ohio's labor supply is prepared to meet the needs of local employers now and in the future.

Ordinance 0839-2007 authorized the City of Columbus to enter into a Memorandum of Understanding to define the roles and responsibilities for the workforce investment program.

Fiscal Impact: This legislation authorizes the appropriation and expenditure of $50,000 under the terms of the Memorandum of Understanding.
