Who can I talk to about available training options?
Visit the NCWorks Career Center in your county. Each NCWorks Career Center
has professional staff available to discuss training options with you. If you are
unemployed, underemployed, or have been laid off from work, inquire about the
training opportunities that may be available under the Workforce Innovation
Opportunity Act.
What are my training options available under Workforce Innovation and Opportunity Act (WIOA) program? There are a variety of training programs that have been approved by the
Eastern Carolina Workforce Development Board. On the following pages, you
will find the approved WIOA training programs that may lead to a
certif icate, diploma, or two-year degree. In addition, there are various
short-term continuing education classes that may be an option, depending upon
your unique situation, education, skills levels, and work experience. The flexibility
of short-term continuing education classes may allow you the opportunity to
enter/re-enter the workforce in a shorter time frame.
Preparation for the Career Readiness Certification, an assessment-based credential
that gives employers and career seekers a uniform measure of key workplace skills,
is available using Worldwide Interactive Network (WIN) courseware. WIN is a
self-paced, web-based, interactive program designed to prepare individuals to be
career and college ready. Contact your local NCWorks Career Center for
information on enrolling in WIN courseware.
What if the training program that I would like to pursue is not in the
training guide?
Regrettably, if a training program is not listed in the training guide, it is not
approved for WIOA funding at this time. Reasons may vary, such as the
training provider has not completed the application to be considered as an
approved provider, training is not in demand in the local area, the cost is too
high to be considered, the training provider is newly established with no
performance history or is outside of the region, training may not result in
employment, or estimated wages after training will not lead to self-sufficient
wage earnings, etc.
6
How much will it cost?
Cost is dependent upon the training program. At the NCWorks Career Center,
staff will review the variety of financial aid programs that are available.
If you are selected to participate in the WIOA program, an individual training
account (ITA) will be established for you in which your tuition, fees and
supplies may be paid through WIOA.
How long can I attend training?
Depending upon the training program, all approved training can usually be
completed within a two year period. Your WIOA career advisor will review
the course content with you and help you set some goals with timelines to
successfully complete the training. Under WIOA, all students must commit
to a full-time schedule, follow training provider’s class attendance
requirements and maintain above a 2.0 grade point average (GPA) to
participate in training.
What happens after training?
Simply put, the purpose of the WIOA program is Employment, Retention
and Earnings. If that is not your goal, then WIOA may not be the program
for you to consider at this time. Throughout your participation in a WIOA
approved training program, you will meet with your career advisor at least
once a month to discuss your progress and goals towards employment.
You will have the opportunity to build your resume and learn of potential job
opportunities. As a requirement for participating in the WIOA program, you
must commit to diligently seeking employment in your training field. There
are numerous job search resources available in the NCWorks Career Center
to help you meet your employment goals. All you have to do is take advantage
of them.
How much can I earn after training?
Become an informed consumer! Do as much research as possible before
committing to a training program. In the back of this guide, we have added the
estimated wages for each of the approved training programs on pages 18-20.

market information link for wage information.
