The Board is proud to support this program that can be critical for workers who need a new career after recovering from a work-related injury or illness.
Whether you're looking to change careers, learn new skills, or get a fresh start, you deserve a pathway to a good-paying job.
That's why we made community college free for adult learners pursuing in-demand careers.
