Federal Grant Funding and QuickStart

In 2014, the Workforce Innovation Opportunity Act, or WIOA, was signed into law, aiming to make a stronger national workforce. WIOA helps people access training, education and support services so that they can fill important jobs in their communities. WIOA provides funding for employment-based training.

For 35 years, QuickStart has offered award-winning IT training courses with their unique learning methodology and their AI cognitive-learning platform, CLIPP. QS Learn and CLIPP gives you a unique bootcamp experience that best fits your learning needs and career goals.

Who Are Federally-Funded Workforce Programs For

Designed to help job seekers access training, education, support services, and employment opportunities, a WIOA training fund pays for employment-based training.

Grants may cover up to 100% of your training program cost, so you can best prepare for a competitive job market.
