Aligns Job Corps with the defense industrial base to train skilled workers.
The Job Corps and Skilled Defense Workforce Act mandates the Secretary of Defense to align the Job Corps program with the defense industrial base. This includes making military recruits ineligible for enlistment aware of Job Corps opportunities, offering advanced career training at Job Corps centers near defense suppliers, and preparing enrollees for skilled industrial jobs in the defense sector. The Act also extends the shipbuilding workforce development special incentive to Job Corps and streamlines enrollment for veterans and military recruits into the defense industrial base.
