The White House will launch a $100 million program to spur tuition-free community college programs across the country, Vice President Biden will announce Monday.
Biden and his wife, Dr. Jill Biden, a community college professor, will preview the Americas Promise grant program today in a speech at the Community College of Philadelphia.
The program offers $100 million in grants designed to create and expand partnerships between community colleges and other training providers, employers, and the public workforce system to create more dynamic, tuition-free education and training programs for in-demand middle and high-skilled jobs across the country, according to the White House.
