1.6.1 Overview

Effective date: July 1, 2020

Local Workforce Development Boards (WDBs), grantees, and/or subrecipients are organizations that are not a part of state government and therefore are not accountable to the state policies that govern records maintenance and retention for state agencies and employees.¹ DWD's Division of Employment and Training (DWD-DET) requires that its grantees and subrecipients have local written policies in place to govern access to and retention of grant-related records compliant with WIOA, OMB's Uniform Administrative Guidance, and this WIOA Titles I-A and I-B Policy & Procedure Manual. DWD-DET recommends that its grantees and subrecipients seek assistance from their own legal counsel or records management staff for the development of these policies.²
