Summary
The legislation revises the formula the Department of Veterans Affairs uses to calculate the employment rate of veterans who finish the VET TEC high‑technology training program. It requires the rate to be based on employment 180 days after graduation, excludes jobs with the program’s provider, and mandates public reporting of full‑time, part‑time and self‑employment figures. The bill also directs the VA secretary to gather ongoing feedback from participants to improve the program.
