The Integrated Education and Training (IET) Toolkit was developed to assist state and local adult education staff to plan, design, implement, and evaluate effective IET programs that are responsive to state and local labor market demands and fulfill the requirements of WIOA. The IET Design Toolkit guides users through a team-based approach to developing customized IET solutions that address the needs of adult learners and local businesses through four iterative phases: Research and Assess, Design and Plan, Develop and Implement, and Evaluate and Improve.

This repository, housed on the LINCS website and developed as part of the ADVANCE IET initiative, offers resources around all aspects of integrated education and training (IET) design and delivery. Resources are geared toward everyone from those creating their first IET program to those with extensive IET experience.
