In addition to the co-chairs, the Advisory Board comprises 25 members that represent various sectors of the economy. The Board advises the National Council for the American Worker. The March meeting will include updates on implementation of recommendations from the previous meetings and discussions of new recommendations under each of the four main goals of the Advisory Board: PO 00000 Frm 00006 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 • Develop a Campaign to Promote Multiple Pathways to Career Success. Companies, workers, parents, and policymakers have traditionally assumed that a university degree is the best, or only, path to a middle-class career. Employers and job seekers should be aware of multiple career pathways and skill development opportunities outside of traditional 4year degrees. • Increase Data Transparency to Better Match American Workers with American Jobs. High-quality, transparent, and timely data can significantly improve the ability of employers, students, job seekers, education providers, and policymakers to make informed choices about education and employment—especially for matching education and training programs to in-demand jobs and the skills needed to fill them. • Modernize Candidate Recruitment and Training Practices. Employers often struggle to fill job vacancies, yet their hiring practices may actually reduce the pool of qualified job applicants. To acquire a talented workforce, employers must better identify the skills needed for specific jobs and communicate those needs to education providers, job seekers, and students. • Measure and Encourage Employerled Training Investments. The size, scope, and impacts of education and skills training investments are still not fully understood. There is a lack of consistent data on company balance sheets and in federal statistics. Business and policy makers need to know how much is spent on training, the types of workers receiving training, and the longterm value of the money and time spent in classroom and on-the-job training.

On January 2, 2018, the CIT remanded the Final Results with respect to our decision to deny Oriental Cherry a separate rate.5 The CIT remanded the Final Results to Commerce to reevaluate the evidence on the record regarding Oriental Cherry’s eligibility for a separate rate, and to assign a separate rate to Oriental Cherry, if appropriate. On April 20, 2018, Commerce issued the First Remand Results.6 On remand, Commerce determined that Oriental Cherry was eligible for a separate rate, because the record supported the finding that Oriental Cherry demonstrated an absence of de jure and de facto government control.7 Commerce did not, however, determine a rate using any of the production and sales information that Oriental Cherry had placed on the record in response to its questionnaires. Rather, Commerce further explained its findings from the Final Results, continuing to find that such information was missing from the record and that Oriental Cherry did not cooperate to the best of its ability to provide such information, and, thus, assigned Oriental Cherry the rate of 118.04 percent as the total adverse facts available (AFA) rate pursuant to section 776(b) of the Act, i.e., the highest rate on the record of this proceeding.8 On June 12, 2019, the CIT remanded the First Remand Results.
