Dear ______,

As you already know, I am a daily user of the (Name of System), a site developed by Geographic Solutions. Many new features and enhancements have been made to (Name of System) to remain in compliance with the guidelines and requirements set forth by the Workforce Innovation and Opportunity Act (WIOA). Virtual OneStop has been pivotal in the effective management of key programs outlined in WIOA, with much of the new functionality being highlighted at the 2022 Workforce Technology Conference.

This year’s conference agenda will be concentrated with numerous workshops on service delivery, data collection, case management, staff efficiency, labor exchange, and reporting. It would be of benefit to both myself and my agency to learn as much as I can about current and future enhancements in Virtual OneStop.

In doing so, I am requesting to be granted approval to register. By allowing me to attend the conference, I feel as though we would be maximizing our investment that our state has made in (Name of System). The conference will also allow me to engage with other workforce regions that use the same system and exchange best practices.

I am requesting approval to attend Geographic Solutions’ 2022 Workforce Technology Conference. Held from October 4-6, 2022, with optional pre-conference training available on October 3, this year’s conference will take place in Clearwater Beach, Florida at the Wyndam Grand Resort.

Here is some additional information on the conference:

Dear ______,

For 30 years, Geographic Solutions has led the industry in designing, developing, implementing and maintaining innovative web-based software solutions for workforce development, unemployment insurance, labor market information, human services, corrections, and education industries. Their most notable recent accomplishments include the modernization of Pennsylvania’s 40 year old UI mainframe system, and the new Nebraska UI system which incorporates tax functionality.

The two unemployment solutions they offer – the Reemployment Exchange® (REX) and the Geographic Solutions Unemployment System (GUS)® are designed specifically to expedite the UI claims and appeals process, reduce unemployment claim durations, and ultimately lessen the depletion of state trust funds — saving states millions of dollars annually.

I am requesting approval to attend Geographic Solutions’ 2022 Workforce Technology Conference. Held from October 4-6, 2022, with optional pre-conference training available on October 3, this year’s conference will take place in Clearwater Beach, Florida at the Wyndam Grand Resort.

The conference agenda features top industry presenters and speakers who are hands-on thought leaders in unemployment insurance benefits, education, career planning, workforce development, and regional/state/national government agencies. New features and enhancements focused on the GUS and REX solutions will also be highlighted at this year’s conference.

The WTC really provides a space to be empowered, to learn strategies, and to share and discover best practices through a myriad of sessions including: UI fraud prevention, workforce and education partnerships, WIOA partner programs, employer outreach and engagement, federal reporting, staff and system efficiency, system enhancements, and so much more.

My participation in the WTC will undoubtedly provide me with the resources and tools necessary to further my professional development while gaining valuable industry knowledge that I can use to advance our organization. Learning as much as possible about the benefits of an integrated site, as well as best practices for utilizing the GUS and REX solutions, can only benefit us. The WTC also facilitates engagement with other workforce regions using Geographic Solutions’ systems and exchange best practices.

Attending the 2022 WTC provides an invaluable opportunity to improve skills, gain knowledge, develop a deeper understanding of relevant topics, and network on behalf of our agency. Thank you for your consideration; I look forward to your decision
