house 04/07/2025 - 119th Congress
We are working to help employers take a more active role in training workers by clearly defining employer-directed skills development, allowing employers to refer candidates directly for on-the-job training and ensuring they commit to hiring those who complete the program successfully. This aims to streamline training and improve job placement outcomes.
