ES Subgoal 19a: FY 1999/2000	New technology is introduced to USAJOBS in order to improve access for disabled information-seekers of employment information.

		Using the results of research and benchmarking conducted in FY 1998, begin the process of acquiring the best new technology in FY 1999/2000 to ensure access to employment information by job seekers with disabilities.
		Work closely with stakeholders to ensure they are satisfied with the new equipment and designs being acquired or implemented.

		Evaluate the satisfaction of stakeholders with the decisions on new equipment and processes, through a qualitative analysis of direct feedback, including feedback posted on OPM's Web site, in FY 2000.

ES Subgoal 19b: FY 1999/2000	Additional linkages between USAJOBS and other employment information sources are integrated to ensure comprehensive service to the public in FY 2000.

		Provide ongoing access to Federal jobs database files to the Department of Labor's Automated Labor Exchange (ALEX) for distribution to State and local governments.
		Conduct ongoing awareness campaign to academic community, veterans’ organizations, service providers for persons with disabilities, minority associations, and other constituency groups, to promote the use of the USAJOBS Governmentwide automated employment information system.
		Continue to work with excepted service agencies to list their job opportunities on USAJOBS.

		New linkages are made and additional job opportunities from a variety of sources are added to the USAJOBS data base. USAJOBS includes all job vacancies in the competitive service open to outside applicants and many vacancies in the excepted service. Some jobs from State and local governments and the private sector are also available, as well as job opportunities for developmental assignments with agencies such as the National Partnership for Reinventing Government (NPR) and Legislative Branch positions including opportunities with the U.S. Senate Office of the Sergeant At Arms and the United States Capitol Police. ES provides internal search pages on the USAJOBS web site for agencies to link to from their own web sites. These pages allow agency employees to view all agency-specific vacancies and integrate employment information delivery for agencies into a single, comprehensive system.
