[Code of Federal Regulations] [Title 20, Volume 3] [Revised as of April 1, 2003] From the U.S. Government Printing Office via GPO Access [CITE: 20CFR646.425] [Page 411] TITLE 20--EMPLOYEES' BENEFITS CHAPTER V--EMPLOYMENT AND TRAINING ADMINISTRATION, DEPARTMENT OF LABOR PART 646--PROVISIONS GOVERNING THE INDIAN AND NATIVE AMERICAN WELFARE-TO-WORK GRANT PROGRAM--Table of Contents Subpart D--Participant Eligibility, Limits, and Allowable Activities Sec. 646.425 Are any education or training activities allowable under the INA WtW grant? Although the Act does not authorize the use of grant funds for independent or stand-alone training activities, the Department recognizes that basic education and skills development as part of an employment experience will be needed by some recipients in order to achieve the ultimate objective of INA WtW assistance, which is self- sufficiency. Therefore, basic education and vocational skills training where needed, based on an assessment of the recipient's needs, may be provided as a post-employment service where the recipient is employed in either a subsidized or unsubsidized job.
