It recommended numerous changes, in particular focusing on employment through a new Five-Track service delivery model and increasing program capacity. Since then, VR&E has worked to implement these recommendations. To help Congress understand whether VR&E is now better prepared to meet the needs of veterans with disabilities, GAO was asked to determine (1) how the implementation of the Five-Track Employment Process has affected VR&E's focus on employment, (2) the extent to which VR&E has taken steps to improve its capacity, and (3) how program outcomes are reported. To ensure VR&E can meet the needs of veterans, GAO recommends that VR&E consider cost-effective options to align the program's financial incentives with its employment mission as well as engage in a strategic workforce planning process that collects and uses relevant data. Additionally, GAO recommends that VA improve the transparency of reports on VR&E program performance. 504 $a Includes bibliographical references. 500 $a "GAO-09-34." 610 10 $a United States. $b Veteran's Employment and Training Service $b Veteran's Employment and Training Service $x Evaluation. 650 0 $a Disabled veterans $x Rehabilitation $z United States. 650 0 $a Vocational rehabilitation $x Law and legislation $z United States. 650 0 $a Disabled veterans $x Employment $z United States. 650 0 $a Veterans $x Employment $z United States. 650 0 $a Veterans $x Training of $z United States. 856 40 $u http://purl.access.gpo.gov/GPO/LPS112135 941 $a 1 952 $l USUX851 $d 20160824093638.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=77798DBCFE5F11E2B6A414D3DAD10320Initiate Another SILO Locator Search
