Workforce Program Simplification: Innovations for Jobseekers and Employers

This new law aims to simplify and improve job search and vocational training programs. It allows states and local areas to test new, innovative approaches to better match job offers with the needs of citizens and employers. The goal is to increase employment opportunities, improve earnings, and ensure more efficient use of public funds.
Key points
States and local areas can receive a single, consolidated grant for employment support programs, instead of multiple separate funds.
This allows for flexible testing of new methods and programs designed to help people find better jobs and increase their earnings.
The changes introduced will be rigorously evaluated by independent experts to determine if new approaches actually yield better results.
Priority for services is given to veterans, public assistance recipients, low-income individuals, and those with basic skills deficiencies.
Programs must serve more participants than before and strive to improve employment and earnings outcomes.
