Modernizing and Investing in Workforce Development
Modernizing and Investing in Workforce Development is the latest of a series of papers recommending systemic improvements to modernize the United States’ outdated patchwork of workforce policies, all being issued by the Better Employment and Training Strategies (BETS) taskforce. BETS is a coalition of more than 40 leading practitioners and researchers that has come together to develop these recommendations.
This paper, co-authored by CSW President & CEO Larry Good and Earl Buford, the incoming president of the Council for Adult and Experiential Learning, argues that the U.S. needs to build and sustain an ecosystem that supports lifelong learning and career mobility for all Americans, and makes five major recommendations for accomplishing that.

It then outlines options for reform and recommends a uniform, much more consistent national UI program that would be administered by the Social Security Administration consistently and equitably across all states. The national UI program would be phased in over two years beginning in 2022. This paper also presents a number of recommended complementary reforms, including a JobSeeker Assistance program to cover groups that have traditionally been left out of the regular program, enhanced funding for UI and Employment Service administration and services,better coordina
