Those looking to receive training for jobs in Orlando Florida may be out of luck until the middle of the year.
Workforce Central Florida recently announced that it has run out of money for training scholarships, which were partly funded by $4 million from the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act. WCF serves as the area’s publicly funded job-service agency.
The scholarships are given to unemployed workers so they can be trained for jobs that are in high-demand, such as healthcare and technology positions. Scholarship recipients can use the money at local colleges or schools specializing in adult education.
