AI Summary

This bill provides a tax credit for employers who train their employees in the MACWIC Applied Manufacturing Technology Pathway Certification program. The tax credit covers 50% of the costs incurred for tuition, training instructors, instructional materials, and the wages paid to employees during the training. To qualify, the employee must be employed full-time (at least 35 hours per week) in Massachusetts and successfully complete levels 1-5 of the certification program. The bill requires employers to provide information about the credit as requested by the commissioner and gives the commissioner the authority to promulgate regulations to implement this new tax credit.
