with the commitment by the employer to retain or avert the layoffs of the incumbent worker(s) trained.
INCUMBENT WORKER ELIGIBILITY 20 CFR 680.780: To qualify as an incumbent worker,
the incumbent worker needs to be:o Employed,o Meet the Fair Labor Standards Act requirements
for an employer-employee relationship, ando Have an established employment history with
the employer for 6 months or more (with the exception that in the event the incumbent worker training is being provided to a cohort of employees, not every employee in the cohort must have an established employment history with the employer for 6 months or more as long as the *majority of those employees being trained do meet the employment history requirement. (*ESD WIOA Policy 5607, Rev. 3 defines “majority” as meaning 51% or more)

2-S. REGISTERED APPRENTICESHIPR A REPORTING AND DATA VALIDATION REQUIREMENTS: TEGL 13-16: o For data validation purposes, staff are
required to flag whether or not a WIOA participant is either in a RA program at the time of program enrollment or whether they enter a RA during program participation.
POINT OF EXIT TEGL 13-16: o The point of exit should be based on when
the participant is successfully moving through the RA program and is no longer receiving services from WIOA.
o The following two factors should be considered when determining an appropriate exit policy: Wage Increases : Apprentices receive
progressive increases in pay as their skills and knowledge increase-this is a core element of all Registered Apprenticeships. A wage increase may be an appropriate point of exit from WIOA, as it means that apprentices have passed a milestone in their training, improved their skills, and increased their earnings-signaling that support through WIOA may no longer be needed.
Credential Attainment : Many RA programs offer interim occupational credentials that can be attained by apprentices during their program. The attainment of a credential is another aspect that could be factored into the determination of an appropriate exit point from WIOA, given that this marks an important milestone in the RA program. Attainment of a credential signals that apprentices have successfully advanced along a career pathway and increased their skills in the field, and potentially moved beyond the point of needing WIOA support.

2-W. DATE AND REASON FOR PROGRAM COMPLETION
PROGRAM COMPLETION: ESD Policy 1020 Handbook:
o The date of program completion is the date of the final program-funded qualifying service. In this sense, it is unlike the exit date, which is common across all programs rather than specific to a particular program. The program completion date may or may not be the same as the exit date. The program completion date will be equal to or less than the exit date.
PROGRAM COMPLETION vs SYSTEM EXIT ESD Policy 1020 Handbook:
O Exit dates are not the same as program completion dates.
O A system exit date is the same as a program completion date only when participants do not receive a qualifying service from another program within 90 days.
SYSTEM EXIT: ESD Policy 1020 Handbook:
o “Exit” refers to a participant who has not received a qualifying service funded by any qualifying program in the WorkSource system for 90 consecutive calendar days and is not scheduled to receive future qualifying services.
20 CFR 677.150(c)(1): o Exit is the last day of service.
REPORTING Federal Register Vol. 80, No. 140:
O Record the last date that the participant received staff assisted services.
