What is the Workforce Investment Act (WIOA)?

The Workforce Investment Act (WIOA) is a federally funded training and job program that creates a new approach, providing workforce investment activities through statewide and local systems. Authorized workforce investment activities provided at the local level benefit job seekers, dislocated workers, youth, foster care participants, incumbent workers, new entrants to the workforce, veterans, persons with disabilities, and employers. These activities promote an increase in employment, job retention, earnings, and occupational skill attainment by participants. This outcome improves the quality of the workforce, reduces welfare dependency, and enhances the productivity and competitiveness of the nation.

Who Qualifies for WIOA Funding?

Many people can qualify for WIOA grants. Workforce funding is generally budgeted into Adult, Dislocated Worker, Older Youth and Younger Youth categories. The majority of funding is budgeted toward adult and dislocated workers whose current job skills are out of date or will be soon. Clients seek training to update current skills or learn skills for a new career if his or her current occupation is not in demand. Generally unemployed, laid off, low income or homeless. Authorized to work in the U.S., not currently enrolled in a postsecondary school & minimum age requirement of 16 and older. Spouse of a member of Armed Forces who lost employment due to permanent change in duty station or is unemployed, underemployed and has difficulty finding or upgrading employment.

What is the Approval Process for WIOA Participants?

Prospective WIOA participants must visit a Job center to find out if they are eligible to receive WIOA grant funding. Prospective students who are good candidates for the program will meet with a WIOA Counselor who will help guide them through the eligibility process.

I had such a great experience at California Dental Certifications in San Diego. The instructors were so kind and really knew how to explain things in a way that made sense. They were patient and always made sure we felt confident with what we were learning. Everything was super organized, and I felt supported the whole time. The environment was clean, professional, and friendly. I honestly recommend this place to anyone who wants to get into dental assisting. I'm so glad I chose to come here!
