This might come as a surprise; there are plenty of job openings across the county. The catch? You need sufficient training to even be considered qualified for those positions. Positions in healthcare often require licensing, certification, even degrees. And gaining these credentials can be expensive. I constantly hear from friends and people in the community how difficult it is to pay for a program when they are unemployed or underemployed.
What they don’t know is that there is a list of programs that the government supplies money for through a program called WIA (workforce investment act)! If you are low income or displaced from work, you may be eligible for some of these funds.
First, you must to find your local office and make an appointment with a representative from your area. Use this website to locate an office near you.
They will assist you in picking a training program and ensure you have the ability to complete that program. You may be required to take placement exams before taking a course, but don’t let that intimidate you! This is your chance to take advantage of a program that can change your life and start you on a new career.
Once you have completed a healthcare training program, take advantage of the other services the college has to offer. Career Services will help review your resume and practice your interviewing skills. These services are priceless, so use them!
MK Education offers many WIA approved programs in colleges across the country. Check out our website at mkedu.org to see what programs are available in your area, and then give us a call to get started!
