Retraining Assistance
Are you a dislocated worker or have you been laid off or lost your job as a result of international trade?
Columbus State can assist students with developing the pricing estimate, requested by their county funding agency, so the agency may determine eligibility for government funding (TAA and/or WIOA) to pursue a new career path at CSCC.

What is TAA? |
When a job is lost or at risk, or hours and wages are reduced as a result of international trade and through no fault of their own (i.e., laid off), workers may be eligible for special federal assistance called Trade Adjustment Assistance (TAA). This assistance provides education, training for a new job, and other benefits provided by the government. |
What is WIOA? |
WIOA (Workforce Innovation and Opportunity Act) was developed to help job seekers and workers access employment, education, training and support services to succeed in the labor market. The services are provided through local (county) American Job Centers within the Ohio Department of Job and Family Services. |
