Core functions include planning, coordination, performance accountability, policy analysis, and research and development for 19 funding streams that comprise the state's workforce development system.

The Board serves by federal and state statutes as overseer of the federal Workforce Innovation and Opportunity Act (WIOA), administrator of the Carl D. Perkins Career and Technical Education Act, and the Veterans Course Approval program. By state statute, the Board administers the Private Vocational Schools Act, the Tuition Recovery Trust Fund, and the state’s industry cluster analysis program.
