AI-generated summary, report an errorThis bill changes the Workforce Innovation and Opportunity Act to define and support "talent marketplaces," which are public online platforms that match people with jobs and learning opportunities using digital education and work records, a credential registry, and a skills profile tool. It directs the Secretary of Labor to set aside 5 to 10 percent of certain national workforce funds for grants of up to 3 years to State agencies to build workforce data systems and talent marketplaces. It allows Governors to set up a talent marketplace and requires the State list of approved training providers to be posted on a searchable, consumer-tested website that does not reveal personal information. It also lets States use certain Wagner-Peyser Act funds to establish a talent marketplace.
