The Workforce Investment Act (WIA) replaced the Job Training Partnership Act (JTPA). WIA is the most radical labor legislation when the national unemployment rate under the Bill Clinton administration was at its lowest in the last decade.

WIA requires an individual to receive employment related services by visiting on location and having his/her needs serviced at one site. The goal is to find a personal work first before any training or ancillary skills are provided.
