Texas HB2800 amends the apprenticeship system for adult career and technology education.

Texas HB2800 amends the apprenticeship system for adult career and technology education by establishing alignment between college and career readiness standards and the knowledge, skills, and abilities students are expected to demonstrate in career and technical education. It mandates that apprenticeship training programs culminate in an industry-recognized certification, credential, or license. The bill also requires the Texas Workforce Commission to publish wage outcome data for apprentices who complete an apprenticeship training program.
