科罗拉多州劳工部获 674 万美元联邦拨款培训技能人才
科罗拉多州劳工与就业部（CDLE）近日获得 674 万美元联邦拨款，用于启动一项职业技能培训计划：雇主为新员工及在职员工提供培训的费用，最高可报销 80%。该计划名为「科罗拉多行业驱动技能培训倡议」，重点覆盖先进制造、航空航天、超级智能基础设施、信息技术、核能和国内矿产生产等领域。
科罗拉多是全美七个获得美国劳工部「行业驱动技能培训基金」第二轮共 4300 万美元拨款的州之一，拨款与培训成果和劳动力需求挂钩。州长 Jared Polis 表示：「这 674 万美元投资延续了科罗拉多在职业技能培训上的努力，帮助居民开启新职业、实现晋升，同时降低雇主的培训成本。」
该计划将通过州政府运营的数字门户管理，报销与两个阶段性目标挂钩；各地劳动力机构将协助雇主对接、招募学员，并帮助符合条件的学员注册《劳动力创新与机会法》项目以获取支持服务。雇主可联系当地劳动力中心的商务服务代表了解参与方式，资格要求与申请细则将公布在 CDLE 拨款项目网页上。（GSM 据 ColoradoBiz 报道）
Colorado Labor Department Receives $6.74 Million Federal Grant for Workforce Training
The Colorado Department of Labor and Employment (CDLE) has received a $6.74 million federal grant to launch a workforce training initiative that will reimburse employers for up to 80 percent of the cost of training new hires and current employees. The Colorado Industry-Driven Skills Training Initiative will target advanced manufacturing, aerospace, super intelligence infrastructure, information technology, nuclear energy and domestic mineral production.
Colorado is one of seven states sharing $43 million through the second round of the U.S. Department of Labor's Industry-Driven Skills Training Fund. The program ties employer reimbursements to training outcomes and workforce needs. "This $6.74 million investment builds on Colorado's workforce training efforts, helping residents start new careers and advance in existing jobs while lowering training cost for employers," Gov. Jared Polis said.
CDLE will manage the initiative through a state-run digital portal, with reimbursements tied to two milestones. Local workforce areas will assist with employer outreach, participant recruitment and regional intake, and help eligible participants enroll in Workforce Innovation and Opportunity Act programs for support services.
