This document summarizes the changes to the Job Training Partnership Act (JTPA) sought by the Amendments of 1990 (H.R. 2039) and provides a line-by-line analysis of the proposed legislation. H.R. 2039 proposes to enhance the employment and training services delivered under the JTPA by targeting the least job-ready clients for job training services while creating a new year-round job training component for at-risk youth. Some of the major provisions of the proposed amendments are the following: (1) establishing a separate program under Title II-A for adults (over age 22) and older workers (55 and older); (2) changing state set-aside amounts; (3) retaining existing performance standards for adults and youth; (4) requiring assessment of participants' skill levels; (5) requiring on-the-job training to be of sufficient duration for workers to learn skills, but not longer than 6 months; (6) encouraging service providers to provide child care to JTPA participants; (7) enhancing fiscal accountability requirements; (8) limiting administrative costs to not more than 20 percent of a service provider's contract; (9) requiring governors to administer the programs directly if their designated subordinates fail to do so correctly; (10) establishing greater authority for the Department of Labor's Division of Indian and Native American Programs; (11) authorizing funding for migrant and seasonal farmworker programs; (12) expanding age limits for the Job Corps up to age 25; and (13) expanding other programs such as nontraditional job training for women.
