In this episode, we dive into the world of WIOA (Workforce Innovation and Opportunity Act) and explore how it can help individuals access funding for education, job training, and upskilling. The Program Director for WIOA and Adult Dislocated Workers at CareerSource Tampa Bay explains the eligibility requirements for WIOA services, which can benefit a wide range of people, including dislocated workers, low-income adults, and even those currently employed but seeking to improve their skills. The discussion highlights the life-changing impact WIOA programs can have, with participants going from receiving food stamps to securing six-figure jobs. CareerSource Tampa Bay is looking to enroll 125-175 participants in the next two months, and the Program Director encourages anyone interested to attend an information session to learn more about the program and how it can help them move forward in their careers.
