Each awardee represents an industry-led, worker-centered workforce training partnership that will build and expand opportunities for more Americans to access and secure good-paying jobs, boosting local economic growth and creating stronger, more resilient regional economies.
The transformational grants will go to 32 awardees selected from a competitive pool of 509 applicants. These partnerships will place more than 50,000 American workers into a broad range of 15 in-demand industries essential to U.S. competitiveness such as aerospace, defense, clean energy, transportation, logistics, advanced manufacturing, information technology, healthcare, and construction.
By eliminating barriers to workforce participation, these industry-led, worker-centered programs will provide Americans in underserved communities with skills, support services, and access to successfully secure a good job.
