Why Implementation Matters: Ensuring Quality in the New Workforce Pell Program
[]
New America
The One Big Beautiful Bill Act created a new Workforce Pell program, which opens up Pell Grant eligibility to short-term job training programs that have traditionally been excluded from federal higher education funding, including non-credit programs.
This webinar will bring together experts from across higher education and workforce sectors to discuss why implementation matters, what quality and accountability should look like, and how states and institutions can prepare.
The role of institutions and workforce stakeholders in ensuring programs lead to meaningful credentials and good jobs.
If you’re a policymaker, practitioner, funder, or advocate, this discussion will provide a clear sense of why and how implementation should be front and center for Workforce Pell to fulfill its promise.
Join us to explore what it will take for Workforce Pell to live up to its promise—and how implementation can turn policy into real progress for students and communities.
