Modifies provisions governing the fast track workforce incentive grant

HB 2151 modifies Missouri's Fast Track Workforce Incentive Grant program to provide state-funded grants for residents pursuing education or training in high-demand occupations. It creates eligibility for "eligible apprentices" (in approved U.S. Department of Labor programs) and "eligible students" (25+ or without recent education) who meet income limits ($100,000 joint/$50,000 individual, adjusted annually for inflation), Missouri residency, and program requirements. Grants cover related costs like tools, books, and uniforms, with funding capped at four semesters or a bachelor's degree. The Higher Education Coordinating Board administers the program, designating eligible fields annually based on workforce shortages.
