Tuition Payment Eligibility
The federal Workforce Innovation and Opportunity Act (WIOA) helps you find a job or train for a new career. Here’s how it works:
- All adults, age 18 or older, are eligible to receive services if approved.
- Government approval of programs is subject to change. Tuition assistance is provided for students who qualify for approved programs.
- To be eligible for the dislocated worker program, you must have received a lay-off notice or have been laid off due to a company closure or mass layoff. You may also be eligible if you’re unemployed and unlikely to return to your prior occupation due to economic conditions in that industry.
- Contact a Career Center near you to determine if you’re eligible to receive financial assistance for training from a provider.
