About National WIOA Data

Overview

FutureWorks BI-National delivers access to the national public PIRL data set made available by the US Department of Labor. This data set is processed into FutureWorks BI's Data Warehouse and surfaced through a proprietary, subscription-based Website,  FutureWorks BI-National.  The data set covers a rolling four-quarter period and includes data for WIOA Title I and Title III activities. Data is refreshed each quarter upon release of the public quarterly PIRL file by the US Department of Labor, Employment and Training Administration. 

FutureWorks BI-National allows for detailed data exploration, analytics, and reporting with access to over 200 data elements that support calculated outcomes and participant flow. 

FutureWorks BI-National allows for benchmark comparisons to every state and Local Workforce Development Board in the country. Users can analyze results by almost every characteristic and service captured in the PIRL record. The data includes participants currently enrolled and exited from WIOA. 

Access to FutureWorks Bi-National is included in State/Local Workforce Development Board FutureWorks BI applications and is also available as an individual subscription. 

About the Data

Prior to the release of a national public PIRL data set, the US Department of Labor, Employment and Training Administration modifies the records to ensure confidentiality and consistency as summarized in the disclaimer. Please take a moment to read the disclaimer.

US Department of Labor Public PIRL Data

For all the Green and Red Percent Achieved data views, the most recently posted state goals on the ETA website are applied, i.e. PY21 Q2 data uses PY21 State Negotiated Goals. At the (All) level, since there is not a GPRA goal,  the goal is set to equal the PY20 actual national results.

Since the National data set is based on a rolling four quarters, the actual Measurable Skill Gains Indicator is only accurate when viewed for each quarter, aggregated four quarters is not a valid result.
