X-Listprocessor-Version: 6.0c -- ListProcessor by Anastasios Kotsikonas Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" ; format="flowed" Status: O Content-Length: 1285 Lines: 41 I wanted to Thank Laura and Diane for the time they spent putting together thoughtful answers for the NIFL-Workplace list about both Workforce Improvement Networks. We have heard Laura and Diane's take on these issues, now I would like to hear from you: Should the Federal Government fund a program to initiate statewide efforts like WIN? How do you feel about this? Would you like to see funding come from the Federal Government for at National Network? How willing would you or your organization be to get involved? In addition to a quote made by Laura, and seconded by Diane: "One area the federal government could help is in the area of documenting learners. The NRS is currently not helpful enough in capturing what really happens in customized workplace education programs." Do you agree with this statement? How do you capture what really happens in your programs so that it can be reported with in your state/government system?
