    hello there, just went through No Worker Left Behind here in Michigan, which seems to handle WIA funding in MI... took me 4 1/2 weeks to jump through all the hoops.

    Just remember to pull together EVERYTHING they ask for with regards to documentation. My Intake supervisor was floored that I had everything ready and neatly ensconced in a file for her! She made an effort to push me through fast after that!

    Also, if there are any classes you need to take for your local WIA get them out of the way as fast as possible. Be proactive.

    And make sure to follow through, ask if there is anything more you can do to make the intake supervisor's work easier with your case. They will get the message that you are not there to waste their time, but to FIND A JOB!
