Under contract to the U.S. Department of Labor, Employment and Training Administration, BPA has partnered with the University of California, San Diego Extension (UCSD) to conduct a four-year evaluation of the Generation I WIRED regions. The evaluation will provide a comprehensive understanding of the implementation and cumulative effects of WIRED strategies, including transformations in their regional economic and workforce development systems. The study also focuses on the extent to which a range of partners from the private sector, economic and workforce development agencies, education and training organizations, and foundations form regional collaborations committed to economic transformation.
