     The Hon(rable John Conyers, Jr.
     House of Representatives

     Dear Mr. Conyers:

          Your May 16, 1978, letter asked us to determine the
     Department of Labor's rationale for several of the partici-
     pant eligibility and program emphasis provisions of its Skill
     Training Improvement Program (STIP). You also asked that we
     review how Labor's region V conducted the first round funding
     of STIP and, if problems occurred, any corrective actions
     taken for the second round. In a subsequent meeting with
     your office we further agreed to gather information on how
     the then-current Comprehensive Employment and Training Act
     of 1973 (CETA) title I program and the private sector
     initiatives program proposed in the 1978 CETA amendments
     bill were considered in the decision to initiate STIP and
     in STIP's design. This report summarizes a briefing given
     to your office on these matters.

          Subsequent to your request CETA was amended by Section
     2 of the Comprehensive Employment and Training Act Amendments
     of 1978 (1978 Act), Public Law 95-524, October 27, 1978.
     The authorization to provide comprehensive manpower services
     under title I of CETA was revised by title II of the 1978
     Act entitled Comprehensive Employment ar)d Training Services.
     The act created a private sector initiatives program under
     title VII. Training programs for special target groups
     authorized under title III of the original CETA are now
     contained in title III and portions of title IV. Because
     our fieldwork was done from June to August 1978 references
     to CETA are to the then-current 1973 CETA legislation rather
     than to the 1978 CETA amendments.
