You may be eligible for the Worker Retraining Program (WRP) if you:
All four of the Seattle Community College campuses offer Worker Retraining programs to provide retraining opportunities for unemployed and dislocated workers in the state of Washington. A “dislocated worker” is defined as an individual unlikely to return to employment in the individual’s principal occupation or previous industry because of diminishing demand for his or her skills, occupation, or industry. First, find out which programs qualify for Worker Retraining funds at www.seattlecolleges.edu/wrp
If you fit eligibility requirements above, you may qualify for tuition and financial assistance through Workforce Training funds and other sources, and possibly for fees, books, bus pass and/or childcare. Other campus services in career planning and job search skills are also available.
Contact the Worker Retraining Coordinator at the college of your choice:
The Seattle Community Colleges are public, state-supported institutions, individually accredited by the Northwest Commission on Colleges and Universities,* an institutional accrediting body recognized by the Council for Higher Education Accreditation and the U.S. Department of Education. Seattle Vocational Institute is accredited jointly with Seattle Central.
