A new bill lets employers design training programs, get cost reimbursements, and partner with workforce boards to close skills gaps without taxpayer funding.
The Employer-Directed Skills Act, introduced by Senators Ted Budd and Bill Cassidy with support from Ohio’s Jon Husted, aims to improve workforce training by letting employers design programs tailored to their needs.
The bill offers partial reimbursement for training costs, helps employers identify potential hires, sets performance standards, and encourages partnerships with local workforce boards.
Proponents say it strengthens the workforce, boosts job quality, and meets business demands without additional taxpayer funding, marking a practical step toward addressing skills gaps nationwide.
