Are you unemployed? I can imagine how hard it is, well let me change that, I KNOW how hard it is because I was once unemployed myself. To get myself on track, I started researching ways to improve my knowledge in the field that I’m in, or how can I make a “career change”.
I started looking through the NYS Department of Labor website and I came across a lot of information. For instance, Did you know you can get a GRANT to pay for a school that will help you get the training you need to enhance your knowledge in your field?
In order for you to get approved, you first have to go to your local “One Stop Location”, which is basically an office that is set up to help you. There you’ll have to fill out forms, go to orientation and meet with Account Managers, Career Advisors and Trainers that will help you go through this procedure. Again, it is a process, but what the hell are you doing now anyway?
There is also the “599” program which helps you collect unemployment while you’re in school. (In order for you to get approved for this program, you must be in school at least 12 hours a week.)
These programs are excellent and you should take advantage of them if you want to improve YOU.
