LCEWD strives to provide equitable services to program participants when deemed appropriate. This requires us to look at each individual and their unique situation to determine the amount of funding we may be able to provide. This process may result in participants receiving different amounts of funding based on their unique support needs.
Training services may be one of the services and strategies that is supported to help lead an individual to employment, though additional approval of training and funding would be needed. Please note, we cannot reimburse for any costs that may be obtained or paid prior to WIOA eligibility determination and enrollment.
Please keep in mind that WIOA funding may be able to support training that leads to an employer recognized credential (certificate, license, degree), can be completed within 2 years or less, and leads to employment in an in-demand career field using labor market documentation (job postings and/or O*Net statistics).
Our WIOA funds are generally able to provide assistance towards one career goal / one training that supports your employment in that career.
