Office of Vocational and Adult Education; School-to-Work Opportunities Act; State Implementation Grants

Riepilogo

The Departments of Labor and Education jointly invite applications for new awards in FY 1995. The Departments also announce final selection criteria to be used in evaluating applications submitted under the State Implementation Grants competition in FY 1995 and in succeeding years, authorized under section 212 of the School-to- Work Opportunities Act of 1994 (the Act). State Implementation Grants will enable States to implement their plans for statewide School-to- Work Opportunities systems. Such systems will offer young Americans access to programs designed to prepare them for a first job in high- skill, high-wage careers, and for further education and training. The Departments also announce a definition for the term ``administrative costs'' that will apply to State Implementation Grants funded under the Act.
