Federally funded employment and training programs play an important role in helping job seekers obtain employment. The Departments of Labor, Educ., and HHS largely administer these programs. The objectives of this report were to determine: (1) whether the number of federal employment and training programs and funding for them have changed since a 2003 report; (2) what kinds of outcome measures the programs use and what is known about program effectiveness; (3) the extent to which the programs provide similar services to similar populations; (4) the extent to which duplication may exist among selected large programs; and (5) what options exist for increasing efficiencies among these programs.

Helps the U.S. Congress identify options that could be used to reduce the deficit. It updates previous work with new information, and systematically identifies in a single document the budgetary implications of selected program reforms discussed but not yet implemented or enacted. There are three broad themes: reassess objectives (terminate or revise services and programs provided); redefine beneficiaries (reconsider a program's intended audience); and improve efficiency (reconsider how a program or service is provided).
