Online directory for vocational training
The New York City Department of Small Business Services on July 11 unveiled the NYC Training Guide, an online directory at www.nyc.gov/trainingguide that will allow New Yorkers using City vouchers for vocational training to make informed course selections.
The Guide includes information about nearly 400 training providers and 4,000 occupational skills training courses, and provides prior students' course completion and job placement rates for courses that received vouchers.
The guide is the first comprehensive, online listing of NYC training programs specifically geared towards helping unemployed and working poor New Yorkers, a press release said.
This initiative is funded by the Mayor's Center for Economic Opportunity, which works with City agencies to develop and operate evidence-based initiatives to reduce poverty.
The internet-based service will help jobseekers evaluate training programs that promote skills building and career advancement, the release said.
