What's Being Discussed

The Oahu Workforce Development Board's Performance Measures and Accountability Committee is holding a one-hour meeting on Tuesday, November 10, 2026, from 1:00–2:00 PM. The committee will review how workforce programs are performing and whether public funds are being used properly. Key topics include:

• Early program data for the first quarter of Program Year 2026, showing how workforce services are performing so far
• Returned funds from Program Year 2025 — money that was not spent and sent back
• Corrective action recommendations related to financial issues from Program Year 2024 and program issues from Program Year 2025
• Contract updates for Program Year 2026 workforce service providers
• Monitoring updates from state financial reviewers, state program reviewers, and the U.S. Department of Labor

Decisions Expected

• A vote to approve the minutes from the August 11, 2026 meeting
• Possible action on corrective measures for identified fiscal and program issues

Who Should Pay Attention

• Job seekers and workers who use or may use Oahu's publicly funded employment and training services
• Workforce service providers and contractors funded through the board
• Taxpayers and community members interested in how federal workforce funds are managed locally

The public may attend in person at 715 S. King Street, Suite 211, Honolulu, or join online via Zoom. Written testimony can be submitted by email to OahuWDB@honolulu.gov at least 24 hours before the meeting.
