WIOA Contract Guide



Overview

Illinois workNet provides a means to report contracts and contract values as required by
the IWIB Act through the WIOA Provider Summary Reporting application (State Legislation and Policy Reference: WIOA Notice 12-NOT-02). The Local Workforce Innovation Areas (LWIA) are required to report annually.

Types of Contract Reporting
​Two types of provider contracts must be reported:

​                                          Training Providers
                                            ​Service Providers
​Report total ITA expenditures (net of refunds) for all ITA training providers for the period. You don’t need to report IWT or OJT training expenditures since the IWT/OJT employers would not be training providers in IWDS or Illinois workNet. Please report expenditures for WIOA-funded grants, such as formula, Rapid Response, and incentive grants. You don’t need to report expenditures for Trade or non-WIOA grants.
​Enter the sub-award/contract amount for each sub-recipient, not the total amount paid. Enter the contract/subaward date range. It may not be the same date range as the reporting period, but it should have started during the reporting period. Previously reported sub-awards do not need to be reported again even if the sub-award amount was modified or the sub-award​ period spans more than one reporting period. Renewals should be reported.

All supporting documentation must be maintained for monitoring purposes. You will only be able to report amounts for providers in IWDS. If you cannot find a training or service provider, try searching using a new/different name. For example, PCCTI Healthcare became Verve College.
