The Workforce Investment Act of 1998 gives state and local officials new authority and flexibility for using federal job training aid to set up market- driven workforce investment systems in every community. This initiative can bring public systems providing services such as postsecondary technical training, employment, job search assistance, job training, retraining, adult literacy, and other labor market aid with closer links to the realities of changing job markets. The intent is to simplify programs under a single, comprehensive system compared to the current array of separate programs.

In New Hampshire, the Office of Workforce Opportunity oversees WIA services.
