House Bill No. 807 establishes the Workforce Instructor Capacity Investment Program in Louisiana, aimed at enhancing workforce training programs to meet employer demands in high-wage, high-demand sectors such as construction, manufacturing, healthcare, transportation, logistics, and information technology. The program will be administered by the Boards of Supervisors of Community and Technical Colleges, Louisiana State University, and Southern University, which will have the authority to create rules for its implementation, including eligibility criteria and allocation methodologies. The bill also establishes the Workforce Instructor Capacity Investment Fund, a special fund in the state treasury, to support various initiatives such as rapid-response instructor deployment, recruitment incentives, and compensation for temporary instructors.

The bill prohibits the use of funds from displacing or supplanting existing state general fund appropriations for public postsecondary education institutions. Additionally, it mandates that the boards submit an annual report detailing the program's financial allocations, supported industry sectors, and the number of instructors and credentials produced. The program is designed to address the shortage of qualified instructional personnel and to provide a flexible investment strategy to expand instructor capacity in response to major economic development projects. The bill will take effect upon the governor's signature or after the lapse of time for gubernatorial action.
