Wisconsin Fast Forward Principles • Business collaborations define skill requirements, provide $$ match, define training expectations, coordinate curriculum and training delivery, hire training program graduates and/or raise wages for incumbent workers – should not duplicate or supplant programs – prototype programs that are scalable, replicable, portable • Education and training collaborations evaluate inquiries, create-deliver training programs, build cohorts, consider sustainable programs, modify existing programming, award credentials, etc. • OSD receives/reviews inquiries, evaluates research, formulates grant program announcements, evaluates grant applications, monitors performance, conducts audits, produces reports
