Building Youth Workforce Skills Act

This bill amends the Workforce Innovation and Opportunity Act to expand access to job training funds for young people. It allows local workforce programs to use existing individual training accounts - previously used for adult workers - to pay for career training for youth aged 16-21 who are still in school or not in school. The training must be provided by approved providers for skills aligned with local job market needs. This change directly affects young people seeking work experience or education beyond high school, making it easier to access subsidized training through existing systems.
