     Subpart A--General Description of the One-Stop Delivery System
 
Sec. 662.100  What is the One-Stop delivery system?


    (a) In general, the One-Stop delivery system is a system under which 
entities responsible for administering separate workforce investment, 
educational, and other human resource programs and funding streams 
(referred to as One-Stop partners) collaborate to create a seamless 
system of service delivery that will enhance access to the programs' 
services and improve long-term employment outcomes for individuals 
receiving assistance.
    (b) Title I of WIA assigns responsibilities at the local, State and 
Federal level to ensure the creation and maintenance of a One-Stop 
delivery system that enhances the range and quality of workforce 
development services that are accessible to individuals seeking 
assistance.
    (c) The system must include at least one comprehensive physical 
center in each local area that must provide the core services specified 
in WIA section 134(d)(2), and must provide access to other programs and 
activities carried out by the One-Stop partners.
    (d) While each local area must have at least one comprehensive 
center (and may have additional comprehensive centers), WIA section 
134(c) allows for arrangements to supplement the center. These 
arrangements may include:
    (1) A network of affiliated sites that can provide one or more 
partners' programs, services and activities at each site;
    (2) A network of One-Stop partners through which each partner 
provides services that are linked, physically or technologically, to an 
affiliated site that assures individuals are provided information on the 
availability of core services in the local area; and
    (3) Specialized centers that address specific needs, such as those 
of dislocated workers.
    (e) The design of the local area's One-Stop delivery system, 
including the number of comprehensive centers and the supplementary 
arrangements, must be described in the local plan and be consistent with 
the Memorandum of Understanding executed with the One-Stop partners.
