Laredo College has received a grant from the Texas Workforce Commission to offer local businesses an opportunity to train workers during the pandemic.
Through the Skills Development Fund COVID-19 Special Initiative Grant, TWC will assist businesses in Texas in fast training to upgrade their employees’ current skills or train new employees in a new skill. Laredo College applied for the funding and was awarded the maximum $250,000 available under this initiative.
The trainings will be administered by the Laredo College Economic Development Center and the LC Continuing Education Department. The college works with representatives from the TWC Office of Employer Initiatives to apply for the funding and once the funds are awarded, they continue to provide support throughout the duration of the grant.
