Where the numbers on Retraining Report come from
Every program and figure comes from the US Department of Labor's list of training programs approved for workforce funding, for program year 2024 (July 2024 to June 2025). Figures are shown as the states reported them, and where a field is empty the page says "Not reported". Schools that never applied for approval are missing.
