Obama, Biden highlight job-training in middle-class push

President Barack Obama and Vice President Joe Biden will put a spotlight on job-training programs on Tuesday as part of a White House push to boost economic opportunities for middle-class Americans, an important voting group in November elections. Obama will sign the ‘Workforce Innovation and Opportunity Act,’ which the White House said would help ‘improve business engagement and accountability across federally funded training programs.’ Biden, who is a potential 2016 presidential candidate, will unveil a new report that will show the results of a study about how to make federal training programs more successful and better tailored to employers' needs, according to Reuters.
