Employers’ Council of Iowa, IowaWORKS to Host “All Things Unemployment” Training Session to Help Employers and Business Partners Navigate Unemployment Policies and Procedures

DES MOINES – Next week, the Employers’ Council of Iowa (ECI) and IowaWORKS will host a virtual training session, “All Things Unemployment,” to help employers and business partners navigate state unemployment policies and procedures, post-pandemic guidance, and more.

Registration for the virtual event is now open.

“This upcoming event will be a one-stop shop for ECI and IWD to provide employers and business partners with critical training on unemployment procedures,” said Karen Holett, UI Deputy Division Administrator for Iowa Workforce Development. “As Iowa works to emerge out of the pandemic, one of our key priorities is equipping businesses with the information they need to reduce the processing time in unemployment insurance and help eligible Iowans get paid faster.”

The virtual training will cover a wide range of up-to-date information on unemployment topics, including the State Information Data Exchange System (SIDES), unemployment insurance claims, fact findings, appeal hearings and other relevant topics.
