Requesting the Addition of Occupations to the Regional Demand Occupations List (RDOL)

Interested Parties,

CareerSource Southwest Florida is soliciting input for the July 2023 – June 2024 Regional Demand Occupations List (RDOL) for Local Workforce Development Area (LWDA) 24 (Charlotte, Collier, Glades, Hendry and Lee counties).  The RDOL is used to determine which occupations are eligible for training reimbursement with Workforce Innovation and Opportunity Act (WIOA) and other workforce funds.  Training reimbursements are issued to authorized training providers for post-secondary occupational training, associate degree education and bachelor degree education which link to the RDOL.

Requests received by June 2, 2023 will be processed for submission at the July 14, 2023 meeting.  For more information and to assist you in providing your input, we have provided a Public Notice and the following documents on our website:
