Efficient, Effective and Friendly

Nearly two years ago WEDnetPA started on a journey to create a more efficient and effective process for managing their GFT (Guaranteed Free Training) portfolio. Over thirty WEDnetPA partners are spread throughout the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, processing thousands of client applications each year.

Launching in April 2011, a new system fondly known as “ISAAC” will be introduced at the annual professional development conference.  ISAAC, WEDnetPA’s Information Sharing, Administration & Analysis Center, will include significant processing enhancements which support the activities of WEDnetPA administrators, partners, and participating businesses. Beginning in May, the system will be open for businesses to apply online for GFT funds for the fiscal year 2011-2012. Those already familiar with the current paper application process will recognize ease of use and exciting new features which will include:

  • On-line application submission 
  • Electronic signing and submission of MOA (Memorandum Of Agreement) 
  • Ability to create and modify an online training plan 
  • Paperless invoicing


Statewide partners will enjoy the ability to track all of their activity, making managing a portfolio easier while also reducing paperwork, time and cost. Similar to most states, Pennsylvania is very interested in streamlining processes and improving efficiencies. WEDnetPA, which is funded by the Department of Community and Economic Development, has strategically aligned their efforts to improve efficiencies and make information more available in real-time and on-demand.

Watch for more information about ISAAC, coming to a computer screen near you – May 2011.
