Designating September 2021 as “National Workforce Development Month”.
Whereas investment in the education, training, and career advancement of the workforce in the United States, known as “workforce development”, is crucial to the ability of the United States to compete in the global economy;
Whereas collaboration among Governors, local governments, State and local education, workforce, and human services agencies, community colleges, local businesses, employment service providers, community-based organizations, and workforce development boards provides for long-term, sustainable, and successful workforce development across traditional sectors and emerging industries;
Whereas jobs that require more than a high school diploma but not a 4-year degree comprise 52 percent of the labor market, but only 42 percent of workers in the United States have been able to access training at that level, creating a discrepancy that may limit growth in changing industries such as health care, manufacturing, and information technology;
Whereas 76 percent of business leaders say greater investment in skills training would help their businesses;
Whereas, as of summer 2021 in the United States—
(1) nearly 10,000,000 individuals are unemployed;
(2) unemployment rates for Black and Hispanic adults are well above the unemployment rates for White adults;
(3) workers without a bachelor’s degree are nearly 2 times more likely to be unemployed;
(4) more than 1⁄2 of the jobs lost due to the Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID–19) pandemic were by workers earning less than $40,000 per year; and
(5) according to a recent poll, nearly 1⁄2 of workers said they will need to learn new skills in the next year to do their jobs, while more than 1⁄2 said they would retrain for a career in a different field or industry if they had the opportunity.
