INTRODUCING THE

Workforce Information System WIS

I’ve got a little job for you.

We’re covered up with data and we can’t easily share with each other without some sort of a system. LAUS OES Census 202 MIS UI CES

We’ve been juggling and sharing our data as best we can but there has got to be a better way.

I heard about a new system that’s supposed to help! I think it’s called ALMIS.

We need some way to keep track of all these statistics lying around. See what you can find out about it. Wages CES LAUS OIS LAUS OES 202 OES 202 Census Wages Workers Jobs Wages CES LAUS OIS LAUS OES 202 OES Census Wages Jobs CES Wages CES LAUS OIS LAUS OES 202 OES 202 Census Wages Workers Jobs Wages CES LAUS OIS LAUS OES 202 OES Census Wages Jobs CES

Let me do some research and I will get back to you!

You guys ever hear about ALMIS? Oh yeah… isn’t that the new must see TV show? Naw, man it’s that new dance craze… or maybe it’s that new flu bug going around?!

I believe you’re both wrong. It has something to do with Workforce Information. You’re right! ALMIS is all about information.

You know about ALMIS? Yep, but there’s a lot more to the story than just ALMIS!

REALLY? Tell me More!!!

No problem. I’ll be glad to teach you what I know! I’m listening!!

Okay, Let’s start at the TOP! ALMIS is part of a new comprehensive...

WHAT is this WIS? What does it do? How is it going to help us share data? Well, I know the acronym now but….

Hold On …. One question at a time! You may be confusing things by getting ahead of yourself.

Let’s start with the WHAT. The WIS contains a DataBase called ALMIS that provides an opportunity for states to store their labor market information in a single place. BUT… WIS is much bigger than a simple DataBase.

What do you mean “WIS is bigger than just a DataBase”?! I thought that’s all there was to it... a way for us to track our information and share it with other states.

No, it’s much more than that. It’s the realization of a comprehensive workforce information delivery system.

WIS isn’t a single program but a multifaceted system.

WIS is an interactive system that ties together various state and national applications.

It is designed to help organize all the tools and data sources used by employers, trainers and jobseekers.

So, you see, WIS isn’t just about jobs or people or labor force statistics, it’s about ALL those things!

It’s a complex system containing many different programs. The ALMIS DataBase is just one part of it. WIS~WIS~WIS~WIS ~WIS~WIS~WIS~WI S~WIS~WIS~WIS~W IS~WIS~WIS~WIS~ WIS~WIS~WIS~WIS ~WIS~WIS~WIS~WI S~WIS~WIS~WIS~W IS~WIS~WIS~WIS~ WIS~WIS~WIS~WIS ~WIS~WIS~WIS~WI S~WIS~WIS~WIS~W IS~WIS~WIS~WIS~

What’s included in the WIS system?

WIS includes AJB

WIS includes ATB America’s Talent Bank

WIS includes ALEx

WIS includes O*Net

WIS includes Employer DataBases

WIS includes (which is where most of the workforce information is stored!)

WOW! I didn’t know it included all that!!

Why do we need all these parts?

Well, jobseekers and employers share a common frustration in finding reliable information about jobs, training opportunities and workforce demographics.

WIS helps streamline and integrate the maze of programs that serve the employment and training needs of Americans.

The WIS serves as the information delivery infrastructure which supports the One-Stop Career Center System mandated by the Workforce Investment Act.

The WIS isn’t really all that hard to understand.

The ALMIS DataBase is constructed and operates a little differently from other WIS programs.

Do we have to go through all the other things in the WIS system just to use the ALMIS DataBase? Nope, use only what you need.

Well, my boss wants a way to share our workforce information data between our state and other states. That would be the ALMIS DataBase, right?

RIGHT! The ALMIS DataBase is designed to do just that.

Right now we store our stuff in a single place on our own computers. How will ALMIS be different?

Let me give you an illustration….. You have many different types of data that are generated from the units in your division. Right?

Industry Statistics Occupational Information Local Area Unemployment Statistics WAGES Current Employment Statistics

Once each unit produces its data it goes into data files for storage. Right.

All the information is stored in different places….. Maybe on individual PCs, maybe on a LAN system or somewhere in a mainframe computer. Right. It winds up looking something like this…...

Different units store their data on their own private data bases and then other users can’t easily access it without winding their way through the maze to find it!

So how does the ALMIS DataBase help? It provides a “central warehouse” for record storage in each state. It also standardizes the record layouts so that they are the same from state to state to state. It can help break down barriers so that all customers can easily reach the data they need.

The ALMIS DataBase acts as an organizing unit.

So you go from this…

To this...

So the ALMIS DataBase is kind of like a giant organizer for workforce information!! You could say that. It puts everything in its proper order. Then it puts everything in its proper place. It makes it easier to find and share data.

Wah-hooo! That sounds great. My boss is going to love this! How do we get one of these?

The ALMIS DataBase isn’t exactly a product that you buy… it’s a system that each state will build and maintain. The file layouts and structure have been designed for you by a consortium of states.

It has already been distributed to the various states. They have begun to populate the data fields.

ALMIS provides the file structures and the “warehouse” layout so that it is the same from state to state. You still have to build and populate the system yourself.

ALMIS isn’t an option but rather a requirement. All states will use the same file structure.

ALMIS lets you stop trying to push over the brick wall...

… and lets you build a city instead!

The ALMIS DataBase will be a vital part of implementation of the Workforce Investment Act.

WIS is the wave of the future.
