Modifies provisions relating to grants for certain workforce training programs

Summary

The bill repeals five current statutes and creates seven new sections that define a statewide workforce diploma program, set performance standards, and establish a Fast Track Workforce Incentive Grant for eligible Missouri students. It tasks the Department of Higher Education and Workforce Development and a coordinating board with approving providers, paying for specific milestones, and monitoring outcomes, while tying future higher‑education funding to a new financing model. An emergency clause makes the changes effective immediately, and the provisions automatically sunset after a set period unless the legislature renews them.
