REGIONAL INDICATORS <br /> <br />The California Workforce Development Board has established Regional Indicators to <br />assess coordination and measure progress within California’s 15 Regional Planning Units <br />(RPUs). These indicators track processes and activities that support regional workforce <br />alignment with industry needs. <br /> <br />Each RPU must establish objective metrics associated with at least two or more of the <br />following four Regional Indicators: <br /> <br />• Indicator A: The region has a process to communicate industry workforce needs <br />to supply-side partners. <br />• Indicator B: The region has policies supporting equity and strives to improve job <br />quality. <br />EXHIBIT 1
