- Summary:
-
This congressional hearing continues the House's oversight of the Department of Labor's (DOL's) Job Corps program, focusing on the fourth element of successful job training, maintaining a vocational curriculum that reflects current and future job opportunities. It reviews findings of a General Accounting Office (GAO) study that found the program performance measures may seriously overstate actual Job Corps performance and gave such examples as definition of those who finish only a portion of a vocational curriculum as completers and questionable, even preposterous, attribution of training-related job placements. Testimony includes statements, letters, and other material submitted for the record by the following; Representatives in Congress from the States of Maine, Connecticut, and New York; National Director, Job Corps; Director, Office of Job Corps, DOL; and individuals representing the GAO; Home Builders Institute; Plasterers and Cement Masons Job Corps Training Program; Potomac Job Corps Center, Washington, DC; and Old Dominion Job Corps Center, Monroe, Virginia.
