Funded by the U.S. Department of Labor and administered by the Office of Workforce Development, the Workforce Investment Act (WIA), Incumbent Worker Training Program is designed to provide funding assistance to qualifying Alabama for-profit companies to provide skills training to full-time, permanent company workers.  The training must be a business necessity that will enhance companies’ abilities to compete in global economies, expand present markets, and help ensure the permanency of businesses in Alabama.  For the workers, the training will upgrade present work skills, heighten job security, provide marketable skills, and increase the possibilities for higher wages and promotional opportunities.  The Office of Workforce Development staff administers, monitors, evaluates, and provides fiscal and agreement compliance assistance during the training process.
