11.9.1 Determining Successful State Performance

Effective date: August 7, 2017

WIOA State performance is determined by assessing the performance of each of the core programs using these three criteria.1

  • The overall State program score, which is expressed as the percent achieved, compares the actual results achieved by a core program on the primary indicators of performance for that core program. The average of the percentages achieved of the adjusted level of performance for each of the primary indicators by a core program will constitute the overall State program score.
  • The overall State indicator score which is expressed as the percent achieved, compares the actual results achieved on a primary indicator of performance by all core programs in a State to the adjusted levels of performance for that primary indicator.
  • The individual indicator score, which is expressed as the percent achieved, compares the actual results achieved by each core program on each of the individual primary indicators to the adjusted levels of performance for each of the program's primary indicators of performance.

The table below shows the relationship between the Individual Indicator Scores, Overall State Program Scores and Overall State Indicator Scores.

Table 11.9.1: Relationship of scores.

T1 Adult Individual Indicator Score Individual Indicator Score Individual Indicator Score Individual Indicator Score Individual Indicator Score Individual Indicator Score Overall State Program Score

T4 Vocational Rehabilitation Individual Indicator Score Individual Indicator Score Individual Indicator Score Individual Indicator Score Individual Indicator Score Individual Indicator Score Overall State Program Score

The table below demonstrates the calculation of the individual indicator score. The adjusted level of performance was set at 50% of participants being employed in the 2nd quarter after exit and the actual level of performance was reported to be 40% of participants who were employed in the 2nd quarter after exit. With this information, the individual indicator score is calculated to be 80% (since 50% was the goal but only 40% was achieved; 40÷50 x 100 = 80 achievement rate).

Table 11.9.2: Calculation of the individual indicator score.
Indicator Adjusted Level of Performance Actual Level of Performance Achievement Rate
Employment 2nd Quarter After Exit 50% 40% 80%

A performance failure occurs when:

  1. Any overall State program score or overall State indicator score falls below 90% for the program year or
  2. Any of the States' individual indicator scores fall below 50% for the program year.

In this example, the Title I Adult Overall Program Score is 83. This is less than 90 and demonstrates failure to meet state levels of performance.

Table 11.9.3: Example of performance calculations during program year in the future.

T3 Wagner Peyser 100% 92% 100%     100% 98%
T4 Vocational Rehabilitation 100% 100% 100% 100% 91% 100% 98.5%

Individual Indicator Score

Effective date: August 7, 2017

The individual indicator score, which is expressed as the percent achieved, compares the actual results achieved by each core program on each of the individual primary indicators to the adjusted levels of performance for each of the program's primary indicators of performance.



Overall State Program Score

Effective date: August 7, 2017

The overall state program score, which is expressed as the percent achieved, compares the actual results achieved by a core program on the primary indicators of performance for that core program. The average of the percentages achieved of the adjusted level of performance for each of the primary indicators by a core program will constitute the overall state program score.



Overall State Indicator Score

Effective date: August 7, 2017

The overall state indicator score which is expressed as the percent achieved, compares the actual results achieved on a primary indicator of performance by all core programs in a state to the adjusted levels of performance for that primary indicator.
