The mission of IDED’s Workforce Development initiative is: to work in partnership with public/private service providers and other state agencies to actively promote Iowa’s preeminence in new employee training, incumbent worker preparation, lifelong learning, and development and expansion of the state’s labor pool to enhance the state’s businesses’ competitiveness, thus keeping companies located in Iowa and raising the wages of Iowa workers. Iowa’s industry-driven workforce development programs and services enhance Iowa’s economic well being by increasing the skills of an already productive Iowa workforce. Iowans, with their unmatched work ethic, are acquiring skills that will increase their earning and improve the competitiveness of Iowa businesses. By leveraging training resources, filling funding gaps in human resource development initiatives, and sponsoring business consortia that address common employment training needs, the skills of Iowa’s workers are enhanced, allowing its industries to grow. Iowa training dollars can be used to provide the following services: - Basic Adult Education - Skill Assessment - Job related counseling - Training services of a community college or another educational institution - Training related materials, equipment, software and supplies - Testing and evaluation of employees - Cost of training services for company, college or contracted trainer - Reimbursement of training travel costs for employees - Contracted or professional services Eligible applicants include Iowa businesses engaged in manufacturing, processing, assembling products, warehousing, wholesaling, or conducting research and development. Businesses engaged in the provision of services that have customers outside of Iowa are also eligible. Business Training Services 2 Iowa New Jobs Training Program 260E The Iowa New Jobs Training Program assists businesses which are creating new positions or new jobs. If a company is expanding its operations or locating a new facility in the state of Iowa, the New Jobs Training Program can provide flexible funding to meet a variety of training and employee development needs. The assistance available ranges from highly specialized educational programs to basic skill training for new positions. The community college district in which the new or expanding business is located issues training certificates (bonds) to pay for the training costs. These certificates are repaid by diverting 1.5 percent of the increased payroll withholding tax revenues resulting for the creation of the new jobs. Property tax revenues, resulting from capital improvements, may also be used for repayment. An additional 1.5 percent supplemental withholding credit, designed to promote the creation of high- quality jobs within Iowa, provides additional funding for companies participating in the Iowa New Jobs Training Program. The amount of supplemental withholding credit is dependent upon the individual jobs that meet the current wage requirements and upon the wages paid to the individuals in these jobs. Eligibility for the supplemental credit is based on a one-time determination of the starting wage. The dollar amount available for training through the program is dependent upon the training and development needs and projected tax revenue available to repay the certificates. Applications for this program must be made through the local community college. A detailed listing of the Iowa New Jobs Training Program projects that have been funded since FY 99 are listed in each community college section. Note: no number listed in the Highest Number of New Jobs column does not necessarily mean no jobs have been created, for new projects, it means the college is not yet required to report the progress of the project. Business Training Services 3 Iowa New Jobs Training Program 260E (continued) Iowa New Jobs Training Program 260E is designed to assist businesses which are beginning operations, as well as businesses which are expanding. The following chart compares the number of new and expanding businesses which have been assisted in the last five years. Business Training Services 4 Iowa New Jobs Training Program 260E State Wide at a Glance Training Dollars Awarded Number of Projects Number Trained Business Training Services 5 Iowa New Jobs Training Program 260E Administrative Allowance The Iowa New Jobs Training Program, Iowa Code Chapter 260E, was established by the Iowa legislature in 1983. It was originally codified as Iowa Code Chapter 280B and since changed to Chapter 260E. It has since become one of Iowa’s most effective and valued economic development tools. The 260E program provides that administrative expenses for the New Jobs Training Program is an allowable program service and program cost. The administrative allowance rate is calculated annually by the Department of Education (DE) and is based on the collective percentage of a specific set of non-instructional cost centers in the community college general fund budgets. It has generally ranged between 14 and 17 percent annually. In approximately 1987, the Iowa Legislature raised the question as to how the administrative fees were being used by the community colleges. Neither the statute nor the rules provide a specific framework or definition. As a result, the community college presidents, the DED and the DE agreed upon and presented to legislative leaders, the following guidelines that were adopted and have been adhered to by the community colleges since that time. It has also provided the guidelines by which the community colleges report their expenses from the administrative allowance to the DE. They include the following eligible expenditures that may be supported and identified in Code of Iowa, Chapter 260E: 1. Economic development staff and associated office expenditures. 2. Monitoring and accounting staff and associated expenditures for economic development activities and projects under Code of Iowa, Chapter 260E. 3. Professional contract services relating to Code of Iowa, Chapter 260E. May include but not limited to Legal, Bank Agency, Bond Registrar, Transfer Agent, and Bond Rating fees. 4. Economic development activities directly related to the needs of the community. 5. Special programs relating to the needs of the community that will promote economic development. 6. In the event of a default in a Chapter 260E training project, and the area school so deems appropriate, the administrative allowance may be used to help offset the default. The community colleges have the option of taking the entire administrative

  • City Receives Award for BRE Project
    City Receives Award for BRE Project The City of Sioux City Economic Development Department has been recognized for efforts to retain a local company that is in the final stages of completing a major expansion. Professional Developers of Iowa (PDI) presented Sioux City with the PDI Business Retention and Expansion Award for efforts in 2014 with the Bomgaars Supply, Inc. expansion project. Governor Terry Branstad and Lt. Governor Kim Reynolds presented the award to Mayor Bob Scott, Councilmember Dan Moore, Economic & Community Development Director Marty Dougherty and Economic Development Specialist Chris Myres at the Iowa Economic Development SMART Conference held May 7 in Des Moines. The City worked extensively with Bomgaars Supply, a long-time family owned and operated retail farm and ranch supplier, to help the company consolidate several facilities into a larger, more efficient distribution center. City staff assisted the company with an application to the Iowa Economic Development Authority (IEDA) for assistance through the Targeted Jobs and the Enterprise Zone Programs. Staff also successfully applied for and received a $1.64 million IDOT RISE grant to assist in the reconstruction of Zenith Drive. The City has worked closely with the Iowa Department of Transportation (IDOT) on the design and reconstruction of Zenith Drive and related infrastructure as it relates to the I-29 reconstruction project. The entire Bomgaars Supply expansion project represents a capital investment of more than $17,000,000. The new facility on the current Sioux City site will retain 177 existing employees and initially create 15 additional new jobs. The project completion date is anticipated for early summer 2015.
