I May Need Job Training
The first step
may be for you to decide what
career is best for you. We have several resources and tools that will enable you to
match what you like to do with job tasks.
This will be important in making your career choice.
The next step
is to determine those jobs
that match your interests, and if these are available in your community (or
where you desire to work.) If you find that your career choice cannot be obtained
without further job-specific training, you'll need to locate training that is
available to meet those needs. In the Workforce Investment System, there are several pre-approved training options that have been determined viable in the State of Maryland. Currently, those training vendors in Maryland and Delaware and their programs are the only ones available for tuition assistance within the Workforce Investment System. However, there are several other avenues listed below that you may want to explore for financial aid. There are also eligibility requirements for those seeking tuition assistance. These include income eligibility. In addition, you may also qualify if you have been displaced by a lay-off from a company where you worked.
