2A. WICIA CORE AND REQUIRED PARTNER COORDINATION 2A1. How Local Boards and AJCC partners will coordinate the services and resources identified in their MOU, as outlined in WSD18-12 - W/DA Memorandums of Understanding. The local boards and AJCC partners coordinate the delivery of services and resources described in the loral hoards' memorandums of understanding (MOU), which delineates each MOLL partner's responsibilities when it comes to helping plan, develop, and implement the local AJCC system. The MOU serves as a functional tool that outlines how the boards and /UCC partners will work together to create a unified service delivery system that best meets their shared customers' needs. The MOU is reviewed and updated every three years, and the infrastructure agreement and other system costs are reviewed annually. Local boards hold AJCC partner meetings monthly, where each partner participates in helping strengthen the partnership across prograrns and works to improve the system's effectiveness that meets local customers' needs. Consistent recurring meetings allow the partners to review performance, shared goals, and address issues that impact service delivery. Partner meetings are also used to cross -train staff to maximize understanding of resources available in the AJCC system. The local boards and partner organizations share the responsibility of providing professional development training to staff. Co -located partners are in the One -Stop Center, and they collaborate closely and avoid duplication of services. Staff from partner agencies interface with clients as necessary and support case managers in developing individual employment plans that may include partner agency services. They also participate in general orientations, host client workshops, support clients in the resource room, and support on -site hiring events. Outreach efforts that support the AJCC programs are shared amongst partners. Partner agencies promote each other's programs to job seekers in the community to increase exposure to the One -Stop Center services. AJCC partners also assist in staffing the One -Stop mobile unit to reach a greater number of individuals out in the community. AJCC partners also coordinate employer services that support the training and retention of a skilled workforce. Coordination involves identifying and designing appropriate business and employment solutions, engaging businesses in sector strategies, and participating in rapid response events. Partners also support the promotion of work -based learning programs to the business community. 2A/1.
