Context for This Presentation
Observations based on two sources of input:
CSW’s experience in working with hundreds of one-stops during past several years
What we learned in managing national one-stop benchmarking project for 4 Illinois WIBs.

Some Core RealitiesMost one-stops fall far short of
being stars – for lots of good reasons
WIA = Then a Miracle Happens
Widely varying leadership commitments
Inventing a new way of doing business is really hard, slow work

Pace of change is relentless
Two years ago, made similar presentation at NGA policy conference. A key point then was that America’s Job Bank helped make traditional job matching obsolete.
Today, Monster.com and others threaten to make AJB obsolete.

Limits of traditional funding are being
reachedEven most creative are running out
of traditional funding as budgets are reduced
Rarely funded as a core function itself; rather as an add-on to which partners must “donate”
Fee for service experiments still limited

Confusion reigns on purpose of one-stopsOngoing confusion on several
levels:
Place vs. system
Service package vs. agency collection
No widely agreed upon definition of success of one-stops as total enterprise

Lack of Solid Measurement Hampers
GrowthFew using center wide and system
wide measures of performance
Failure to track resource room performance was a mistake: measuring outcomes for one out of 10 users

The Opportunity
Reauthorizations provide opportunity to strengthen one-stop framing
States can play pivotal role in accelerating improvement
![Page 9: The Future of One-Stop Career Centers Larry Good Corporation for a Skilled Workforce 2890 Carpenter Road, Suite 1600 Ann Arbor, MI 48108 (734) 971-6060.](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022070400/56649f115503460f94c24b41/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)

The Challenge
One-Stops don’t have long to convince employers, job seekers and community leaders they have value
Can one-stops operated by consortia of government agencies increase their rate of improvement enough to remain viable?
The rest of the world won’t wait

Survival isn’t good enough
One-stops really have only two choices:
Become agile, entrepreneurial and highly responsive to markets
Become irrelevant and die

Stage 3: Reinvent
Move from combining existing practices to asking key question: are we doing the right work?
Tough minded market analysis and prioritization
Stop doing things; redesign fundamentals
New mantra: do we have adequate customers and markets to be viable?

State of Development
Most are at Stage 1
A small band of innovators are at Stage 2
Almost no one is at Stage 3 -- but where all must go
![Page 16: The Future of One-Stop Career Centers Larry Good Corporation for a Skilled Workforce 2890 Carpenter Road, Suite 1600 Ann Arbor, MI 48108 (734) 971-6060.](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022070400/56649f115503460f94c24b41/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)

Opportunities
Shift focus from job matching to advising Become excellent at some services -- what
are you known for? Develop a strong fee-for-service
component -- supports flexibility and ensures centers are in touch with customers
Challenge all old operational assumptions -- throw out rule books designed for old systems and build new models
![Page 17: The Future of One-Stop Career Centers Larry Good Corporation for a Skilled Workforce 2890 Carpenter Road, Suite 1600 Ann Arbor, MI 48108 (734) 971-6060.](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022070400/56649f115503460f94c24b41/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)

Keys for National Policy
Make clear in law one-stop is legitimate function with own funding
Be very clear: one-stop is about service package, NOT about existing agencies, programs
Measure results with all customers, not just intensive service recipients
Don’t micro-manage – set clear, but broad expectations
![Page 18: The Future of One-Stop Career Centers Larry Good Corporation for a Skilled Workforce 2890 Carpenter Road, Suite 1600 Ann Arbor, MI 48108 (734) 971-6060.](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022070400/56649f115503460f94c24b41/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)

Keys for State Policy
Encourage reinvention; reward risk takers Focus on clear, broad policy; avoid
micromanaging Expect, encourage, require high quality Define, with WIBs, one-stop measures Make two key sustained investments:
Integrated MIS for easy staff use Brand building

centerpieces Centers improve when UI leaves the building
