Bill > S2200

This bill, the Promoting Apprenticeships through Regional Training Networks for Employers' Required Skills Act of 2023 (PARTNERS Act of 2023), aims to promote registered apprenticeships and on-the-job training for small and medium-sized businesses within in-demand industry sectors, through the establishment and support of eligible partnerships. The bill authorizes appropriations to the Secretary of Labor to make allotments to eligible states, which can then award grants to industry or sector partnerships to support registered apprenticeship and on-the-job training programs. The grants can be used for various activities, such as assisting businesses with the apprenticeship registration process, providing supportive services to workers, and leveraging additional resources to support these programs. The bill also includes performance reporting requirements at the local and state levels to measure progress in expanding registered apprenticeships and on-the-job training.
