SUMMARY:

Study; business participation in school-to-work programs. Requests the Department of Education, in cooperation with the Departments of Labor and Industry and Taxation, to study ways to encourage business participation in school-to-work transition initiatives, mentoring, and apprenticeship programs. The Department, working through the Secretary's Virginia Business Education Partnership Program, will consider, among other things, current school-to-work, mentoring, and apprenticeship programs in the Commonwealth and in other states; the feasibility and appropriateness of providing financial incentives, such as tax credits, to encourage business participation in such initiatives; potential business liability and labor law concerns; and such other issues as the joint subcommittee deems appropriate.
