An example of an enabling act is the Smith-Hughes National Vocational Education Act, passed in 1917, which provided federal funding for vocational education programs in the United States. This act enabled the federal government to support and promote vocational education by providing grants to states for the development of vocational education programs.

Vocational agriculture started in the early 20th century, with the passage of the Smith-Hughes National Vocational Education Act in 1917 in the United States. This legislation provided federal funding for vocational agriculture programs in schools and laid the foundation for agricultural education at the secondary level.

The Smith-Hughes National Vocational Education Act of 1917 was an act of the United States Congress that promoted vocational agriculture to train and provide funds for people "who have entered upon or who are preparing to enter upon the work of the farm." It was one of the first acts of the government supporting vocational work.
