Pursuant to the provisions of the Workforce Innovation and Opportunity Act (WIOA}, a Local Workforce Development Board (LWDB) must be established in each workforce development area within the state and must be certified by the Governor. The purpose of this instruction is to issue additional state criteria regarding LWDB composition requirements. These criteria will assist chief elected officials in appointing appropriate representatives with optimum policymaking authority within the organizations, agencies, or entities represented and ensure that LWDBs create required standing committees. This policy guidance replaces State Instruction 14-03.
