Incumbent Worker Tracking System (IWTS) Guide

The Illinois workNet Incumbent Worker Tracking System (IWTS) is the source for planning for and reporting on Incumbent Worker Training. See WIOA ePolicy Chapter 7 Section 2.2.3 for more information.

The information in this guide is for state staff and Incumbent Worker Training (IWT) grantees:   

  • All Local Workforce Innovation Area grantees who have IWT included with their formula grants can identify staff responsible for completing the IWTS plans, employee information, and quarterly reports.

  • DCEO staff or grantee initiate an IWT Plan for all other IWT grants.  Each plan can have only 1 employer. Use the "Add an Additional Project for this Grant" option located on the project detail page to clone that project to use for additional employers as needed. Be sure to include the employer name in the plan title for easy identification. Grantees’ primary contact is responsible for completing the IWTS plans, employee information, and quarterly reports.
