Bill overview
House Bill 4956 creates the "Michigan Achievement Skills Scholarship Act," which provides financial aid to residents attending specific occupational training programs in Michigan. This scholarship is intended to help individuals gain skills needed for evolving jobs and aims to increase access to career training. The program has specific eligibility requirements, including graduation with a high school diploma or equivalent, being a first-time enrollee, and not previously earning a degree. The Department of Lifelong Education, Advancement, and Potential will administer the scholarship, and the legislature requires its enactment to be tied to House Bill 4955.
