Guam § 43110 - Performance Standards.

§ 43110. Performance Standards.

(a) The Legislature recognizes that the Tourist Industry Job Corps

Program is an essential investment in human capital in a vital industry. In

order to determine whether that investment has been productive, the

Legislature finds that it is essential that criteria for measuring the return on

this investment be developed. In order to determine whether these basic

measures are achieved, the Commission, prior to implementation of the

program, shall prescribe standards on the basis of appropriate factors which

may include:

(1) Attainment of recognized employment competencies

prescribed by local educational and employer community;

(2) Post secondary school completion, or the equivalent thereof;

(3) Placement in unsubsidized employment following the

completion of training activities provided under this Chapter.

(b) The Commission may modify the performance standards under this

Section not more than once every two (2) fiscal years, and such

modification shall not be retroactive.

(c) The Commission shall provide technical assistance to programs

which do not meet performance criteria. If failure to meet performance

standards persists for a second year, the Commission shall impose a

reorganization plan. Such plan may restructure the program delivery

system, prohibit the use of designated employers, worksites or service

providers, or make such other changes as the Commission deems necessary

to improve program performance.

(d) The Governor shall, not later than ninety (90) days after the

enactment of the acceptance of the plan by the Legislature in accordance

with Subsection (b)(3) of § 43108 of this Chapter, implement performance

standards for the first program year under this Chapter to measure the

results of participation in the program to achieve the goals set forth in this

Section.
