House Bill 160 creates the apprenticeship and training advisory committee with 15 members, representing industry, labor, and educators, appointed by the executive director of the Texas Workforce Commission and removes from the Texas Council on Workforce and Economic Competitiveness the responsibilities formerly exercised by an apprenticeship and training advisory committee that was abolished by the 74th Legislature. The act requires the committee to meet twice a year to recommend and evaluate a statewide plan to develop a comprehensive apprenticeship program.
