&lt;p&gt;The American Recovery and Reinvestment Act (ARRA) of 2009, is intended to preserve and create jobs, promote the nation&apos;s economic recovery, and to assist those most impacted by the recession.&amp;nbsp; The public workforce system has a pivotal role to play in helping workers prepare for and find employment and in providing work experience for youth. The following series of Webinars is offered to provide guidance and technical assistance to the Workforce Investment System regarding the implementation of funds appropriated under ARRA. The series will be initiated with a live broadcast on Monday, March 23, 2009. A follow-up question and answer session will be held on Monday, March 30, 2009. When registering for a Webinar, please choose the program-specific sessions that are most applicable to you as seating is limited 1,000 participants.
