From time to time, the NCWorks Commission considers and adopts certain major statewide policies for the workforce development system, in accordance with the federal Workforce Innovation & Opportunity Act (WIOA).

Before the Commission considers adopting a policy statement, policy development experts at Commerce's Division of Workforce Solutions draft language for each policy, which we then post online to offer the public a period of time to submit comments about the proposed policy.

If a draft policy is open for public comment, you'll find a link below on this page. Click on each link to read the draft and submit your comments.

After the Commission approves a policy, you can find it on our Policy Statements page.

The following proposed policies are open for public comment:
