To date, the statement notes that more than 360 companies have committed to investing in over 14 million students and workers through the administration’s “Pledge to America’s Workers” program. Trump said his administration is also developing standards for industry-recognized apprenticeship programs, “which will assist workers in obtaining the knowledge they need to secure family-sustaining careers by taking advantage of high-quality, demand-driven opportunities.”
