§  820.  Statement  of public policy.   There are persons who lack the  academic and career education and training necessary to obtain and  hold  employment  in  the contemporary economy because of dislocations arising  from  automation   and   other   technological   developments,   foreign  competition, relocation of industry, shifts in market demands, and other  changes  in  the  economy.    The  skills  of many other persons who are  currently employed are being rendered obsolete by such  dislocations  in  the  economy.  Unless  such  persons  are  given  appropriate career and  related education and training, many of  them  and  their  families  are  doomed to lifelong unemployment or underemployment and dependency on the  aid,  care  and  support  of  the  welfare agencies of the state and its  political subdivisions; with appropriate career  and  related  education  and  training;  many  of  them  would  become qualified for occupational  categories which remain  unfilled  because  of  shortages  of  qualified  personnel.    Accordingly,  it  is  the  purpose  of this act to authorize the state  government to develop programs  of  career  and  related  education  and  training  which will permit persons who face the hazards of unemployment  and  underemployment  to  develop  skills  which  are  useful   in   the  contemporary  economy  and to assist such persons to participate in such  programs.
