Under WIOA, there is an
increased emphasis on training provider accountability and performance as well
as a national focus on clients attending training programs associated with
occupations in high demand industries. The training should also lead to the
achievement of industry recognized credentials.
WIOA
funding covers up to $8,000 in tuition plus the cost of books, depending on
what program a student chooses to pursue.
WIOA funding, however, may not cover all costs associated with the
program. The student may be responsible
for some out-of-pocket expenses.
Eligibility
for WIOA funds does not determine eligibility for individual programs. Each
program has its own entrance requirements.
Check with your anticipated 4-year institution for applicability of
transferable credits.
