What this amendment would do

This amendment, titled the Fast Track Healthcare Apprenticeships Act, aims to change the National Apprenticeship Act of August 16, 1937.

The amendment proposes the following additions and changes:

Health Care Apprenticeship Registration: It requires the Secretary of Labor to create a system for health care apprenticeship applications where:
- A decision is given to the applicant within 45 days of receiving the application.
- If no decision is made in 45 days, the applicant must receive a written explanation for the delay and an estimated timeline for a decision, which cannot be more than 90 days after the explanation.
Digitization: It requires the Secretary of Labor to ensure that apprenticeship agreement forms, including disability disclosure and employer agreement forms, are digitized.

The amendment defines the health care field as healthcare practitioners, technical occupations, and healthcare support occupations as described in the Bureau of Labor Statistics Standard Occupational Classification System.
