More specifically, the report recommends:
- Defining and prioritizing evidence of effectiveness in WIOA grant programs;
- Setting aside 1% of WIOA funds for program evaluations;
- Creating a new Workforce Innovation Fund; and
- Highlighting how state and local government workforce agencies are already building and using evidence to improve workforce outcomes.

These recommendations, if implemented, could enable the reauthorization of WIOA to catalyze a truly evidence-driven public workforce system.
