Multiple Employment Training Programs: Information Crosswalk on 163
Employment Training Programs (Fact Sheet, 02/14/95, GAO/HEHS-95-85FS).
GAO compiled a list of 163 programs and funding streams that provide
about $20 billion in employment training assistance. During recent
testimony before Congress (GAO/T-HEHS-95-53 and GAO/T-HEHS-95-70), GAO
indicated that the number of employment training programs had risen to
193 since 1991 and that this fragmented "system" wasted resources and
confused and frustrated clients, employers, and administrators. To help
Congress make hard choices about overhauling and consolidating
employment training programs, this fact sheet provides a crosswalk of
information for each program, including (1) fiscal year 1995
appropriation, (2) summary of the program's purpose as it relates to
employment training activities, (3) authorizing legislation and the U.S.
citation, (4) Catalog of Federal Domestic Assistance program number, (5)
budget account number, (6) target group, and (7) type of employment
training assistance provided.
