Workforce Solutions Greater Dallas to Offer Training Scholarships Immediately for Demand Jobs in the Metroplex

DALLAS, TX (April 29, 2014)—Workforce Solutions Greater Dallas announced today that they will be offering training scholarships for unemployed, underemployed or still looking for that first job in the Dallas area.

According to theU.S. Congress Joint Economic Committee, with almost five unemployed workers for every job opening, the economy is not yet creating enough jobs to make a significant reduction in unemployment. Yet employers report that they are having difficulty finding skilled workers for key positions, despite the high ratio of unemployed workers to job openings. Helping workers build new skills and search more effectively for positions that are a good match for their skillset can help to address the mismatch.

The Workforce Investment Act (WIA) offers many training options for jobs ranging from welding to IT services. Training scholarships from Workforce Solutions Greater Dallas provide assistance for job seekers to learn new and enhanced skills necessary to advance in the workforce. WFSDallas would like to make an investment in the Dallasites looking for employment.canstockphoto7430730
