AI Summary

This bill establishes a grant program within the Department of Labor to support the creation, implementation, and expansion of registered apprenticeship programs in cybersecurity. The bill defines a "registered apprenticeship program" as a program registered under the National Apprenticeship Act and a "workforce intermediary" as an entity that facilitates the establishment of such programs. The grants will be awarded on a competitive basis to workforce intermediaries to help them develop curricula, partner with employers, and provide support services for apprentices, such as career counseling and assistance with transportation and childcare costs. The bill also authorizes appropriations to carry out these activities.
