What is ETN?
The Employment Training Network (ETN) is a multi-faceted, full-service
program created by the Employment Development Department (EDD) to assist
in the development and implementation of effective Welfare-to-Work (WtW)
and Workforce Investment Act (WIA) projects and programs. The ETN is
administered by the Association of California School Administrators
(ACSA) and is funded by the EDD Workforce Services Division.
The goal of the ETN is to provide immediate, short-term technical
assistance. The process is streamlined and evaluations received for
ETN services have been consistently excellent.

assistance in any area that will improve the delivery of services. The

topics addressed by these consultants include:

firsthand how others are addressing issues you face in operating an
effective program. In a hands-on environment you have the opportunity
to discover which training techniques and administrative structures have
been successful.
