     116L.02 Job skills partnership program. 

    (a) The Minnesota job skills partnership program is created 
 to act as a catalyst to bring together employers with specific 
 training needs with educational or other nonprofit institutions 
 which can design programs to fill those needs.  The partnership 
 shall work closely with employers to train and place workers in 
 identifiable positions as well as assisting educational or other 
 nonprofit institutions in developing training programs that 
 coincide with current and future employer requirements.  The 
 partnership shall provide grants to educational or other 
 nonprofit institutions for the purpose of training workers.  A 
 participating business must match the grant-in-aid made by the 
 Minnesota job skills partnership.  The match may be in the form 
 of funding, equipment, or faculty. 

    (b) The partnership program shall administer the health 
 care and human services worker training and retention program 
 under sections 116L.10 to 116L.15.
