WIOA data exploration, analytics and reporting in the fast lane

The ability to quickly respond to requests for performance information from stakeholders is very important.  FutureWorks BI makes it fast and easy. But we take reporting to a whole new level by allowing you to freely explore your program data and discover information that can color the performance stories you tell. We call it fluid analysis and it makes data exploration fun.

Include the data you need

FutureWorks BI can leverage data you capture in your case management system beyond the data elements contained in the WIOA PIRL. Your custom defined metrics can also be included. The options to expand the data in your unique FutureWorks BI application service opens you up to richer analysis. Why not get the most from the data you collect?

Look beyond required performance reports

With FutureWorks BI you have a Business Intelligence application to explore WIOA program data far beyond the required Federal WIOA outcome measures.

Tap real-time information that can positively impact outcomes.

FutureWorks BI includes a wide variety of additional metrics, such as Percent Training Related Employment, Priority of Service Rate, Training Completion Rate, Earnings Change, Percent Co-enrolled and Average Wage for each quarter after program exit. In addition, FutureWorks BI includes custom data elements to expand the analysis potential of the WIOA PIRL.

With over 200 PIRL data elements a mouse click away, you have what you need for deep data exploration without writing any query or code.
