This report represents the collective efforts of the State Job Training Coordinating Council and its staff to recommend to you a plan for implementation of a high skill, high wage strategy that will prepare the Texas work force for the smart jobs of the future. The recommendations in this report reflect the Council\u27s conclusion that a more effective and efficient system would result if all work force development programs were administered by a single agency at the state level. We also recommend a single, broadly constituted, Human Resource Investment Council to advise you on Texas\u27 major work force development programs. January 1993
