The president of the system shall establish the Health Workforce Retraining Program for the purpose of making these education and training programs available to eligible businesses and organizations, including, but not limited to, hospitals, long-term care facilities and other health care facilities, to support the training and retraining of health care employees to address changes in the health care workforce.

A. Criteria for eligible health care businesses and organizations;
