WIOA Approved Programs

If you've been displaced from your career, or need to advance in your current position, you may be eligible for federal assistance through the Workforce Innovation and Opportunity Act (WIOA). For individuals who qualify for federal assistance through California's Employment Development Department (EDD), funds may be applied toward the cost of tuition, parking, and certificate fee at UCR University Extension.

The Workforce Innovation and Opportunity Act (WIOA) was signed into law on July 22, 2014 to assist job seekers in accessing employment, education, training, and support services to succeed in the labor market, and to match employers with the skilled workers they need to compete in the global economy.
