COUNCIL DOCUMENTS

Workforce Arizona Council Bylaws - The Workforce Arizona Council bylaws are set of rules created by and adopted by the Council to govern itself.

The Council Bylaws workgroup reviews the bylaws annually. Most of the Council's bylaws, such as membership requirements, are pulled directly from the Workforce Innovation and Opportunity Act and are required rules.

Annual Report- The Workforce Arizona Council Annual Report is a comprehensive, Council-wide, inclusive report that illustrates the Council's activities for a prior year. The Annual Report, prepared by Council Staff, shows the effectiveness of the Council and provides data from other system stakeholders.
