An act relating to workforce leadership in Vermont

This bill reorganizes Vermont's workforce leadership by designating the Commissioner of Labor and the Executive Director of the Office of Workforce Strategy and Development as co-leaders for workforce education and training programs. It requires these officials to coordinate state workforce activities, align training with job market needs using data, and ensure no duplication of services across agencies. The bill mandates that all state-funded workforce programs submit annual reports detailing trainee outcomes, employment status, and program effectiveness. It also establishes requirements for an annual report to the legislature and creates a centralized job board to connect job seekers with opportunities. The changes primarily affect state agencies administering workforce programs and the businesses or training providers receiving state funding.
