Financial Assistance
There are two federal programs available for job seekers: the Workforce Innovation and Opportunity Act (WIOA) and the Trade Adjustment Assistance (TAA) program. If you need training to change career paths or improve your job skills, you may be eligible for assistance. Contact Job Link to learn more.
The goal of these programs is to help individuals find a new position in a field that offers promising career opportunities. For job seekers who qualify, financial assistance can be used to get the training you need to get back on your feet.
For job seekers who qualify, financial assistance can be used to enroll in training and/or classes (typically a college or a training school), and pay for course fees, books, and other materials.
Events & Workshops
Our workshops have you covered when it comes to brushing up on the important skills for securing your next job. From a self-assessment that will help you understand your strengths and evaluate your interests, to workshops that cover resume and interview best practices, these classes are fun, interactive, and full of actionable advice. Workshops can be taken multiple times and are a great way to network and learn about yourself.
We are excited to announce our popular workshops have gone virtual!
