This report is the first in a series of reports on Florida's workforce education systems.

• Florida's workforce development system is made up of a highly complex collection of organizations that share a common goal of providing training and employment services that enable people to become or remain economically self-sufficient while promoting Florida's economic growth by providing employers with trained workers.
• To help policymakers assess this complex system, OPPAGA developed two charts that depict its organization and funding. First, the Workforce Development Training and Employment Services diagram shows the state and local entities involved in delivering workforce training and employment services and how this system is structured. Second, the Workforce Development System Funding Flow diagram illustrates how funds flow from the Federal government through the state level system to local entities.
