Provide high-level technical assistance and guidance to 28 Local Workforce Development Boards to ensure workforce programs are operated according to TWC standards.
Prepare analysis of bills of the Texas Legislature to determine their impact on TWC policies, operations, and costs.
Promote the goals of TWC and workforce employment and training services at public meetings and interagency workgroups.
