Essentially, it ended the company run training programs because the employer could no longer choose those who it would put into their programs. he Wiki article does not specifically say it, but these training programs were collateral damage. The training was shifted to the colleges and universities so the company didn’t have the legal risk of a discrimination lawsuit in the event a person in the program didn’t pass or have another issue. Specifically regarding Griggs it was the administration of aptitude tests that were declared discriminatory.
