OUR STANDARDS OF EXCELLENCE - WHAT WORKS CITIES CERTIFICATION, STATE STANDARD OF EXCELLENCE, AND FEDERAL STANDARD OF EXCELLENCE - HELP GOVERNMENTS BENCHMARK THEIR EXISTING DATA AND EVIDENCE CAPACITY AND PROVIDE A ROADMAP FOR HOW TO ACCELERATE THEIR PROGRESS AND DELIVER BETTER RESULTS.

(3) WORKFORCE: HELPS STATE AND LOCAL WORKFORCE LEADERS IMPROVE OUTCOMES FOR JOB SEEKERS AND EMPLOYERS BY INVESTING FEDERAL, STATE, AND LOCAL WORKFORCE DOLLARS IN EVIDENCE-BASED, RESULTS-DRIVEN SOLUTIONS THROUGH OUR STATE & LOCAL WORKFORCE FELLOWSHIP AND GOOD JOBS AND EQUITY PROJECT.
