NASDCTEc hosted Washington Update from Your NASDCTEc Public Policy Team, a webinar which outlined the action happening on Capitol Hill and in the Obama Administration:

• Votes are occurring on appropriations bills in both the House and Senate this month;
• The Employment and Training Administration Assistant Secretary is in place and is testifying about the reauthorization of the Workforce Investment Act;
• Congress is turning President Obama’s community college proposal into legislation; and
• A new OVAE Assistant Secretary has been nominated by the President.

If you missed it, don’t worry! You can access an archived version of the webinar at: https://cisco.webex.com/ciscosales/lsr.php?AT=pb&SP=EC&rID=40059942&rKey=96e32f4545197b8e. Download the PowerPoint slides here.
