House Committee Approves Legislation to Reform Perkins

7/7/2016

0 Comments

 
The House Committee on Education and the Workforce unanimously approved H.R. 5587, the Strengthening Career and Technical Education for the 21st Century Act. Introduced by Reps. Glenn “GT” Thompson (R-PA) and Katherine Clark (D-MA), the legislation reauthorizes and reforms the Carl D. Perkins Career and Technical Education Act and will enhance career and technical education through increased focus on employability skills, work-based learning opportunities, and meaningful credentialing so students are prepared to enter the workforce poised for success.
 
ATEC joined 200 other companies, organizations and associations in a letter supporting the legislation and urging swift passage.
 
Stay tuned as we await the Senate committee version of the legislation, and continue through the legislative process.
