Workers who have recently lost their jobs are getting some help from many area community colleges.
By the grace of college administrators, individuals will be eligible for free tuition and fees as most heads know now more than ever the critical importance in offering such assistance to thousands. Tuition will be limited to certain programs in certain career fields where workers are in high demand. One must provide a letter from a former employer verifying they have been laid off and can start new with a career in the fields of technology, computer science, electronics and health care. Books and lab fees are not included, however.
Listed below are names of some community colleges. If yours is not posted, call them today as many are being offered for a limited time.
