Establishes the American Workforce Act to create a workforce development program as an alternative to college.
The American Workforce Act establishes a program of workforce development as an alternative to college. It creates the American Workforce Division within the Department of Commerce to administer the program. Employers and prospective trainees must prepare an American workforce contract, which is subject to approval by the Director. The program provides workforce education subsidies to employers for educational workforce training, not wages or salaries. Employers must ensure trainees have a reasonable opportunity to be hired as full-time employees.
