Utilizing Workforce Center to Help Land a Job

If you’re unemployed, utilizing the services of the Colorado Workforce Centers are a great way to search for jobs, better your skills, and hone in on what your workplace skills are. Each county has a Workforce, and they are specifically there to serve you and help you get that next job….hopefully your dream job! If you are not quite sure where it is you belong in the workforce, or if you do but are having a difficult time finding the right fit, take advantage of your local Workforce and see your tax dollars at work.

One of the neatest things about Workforce is that they are able to give people money to go back to school or to seek out additional training, for those who qualify. The Workforce Investment Act (WIA) is there to assist people to get that leg up above their competition and help people become more marketable to land that job they want. Getting trained or re-trained in this way will give you recent education on your resume, which is attractive to employers. It shows that you are interested in always doing better at your job and improving your skills.

There are a variety of training programs at colleges and vocational schools that a person can pursue utilizing WIA resources. One of which is the Accounting and Business School of the Rockies (ABSR). We offer six Certificate programs in Professional Bookkeeping, Administrative Assistant, Office Manager, Call Center/Customer Service, Microsoft Power User, and Office Skills. Any one or more of these three or four month Certificate programs can give you that recent education and the skills you need to land the job you desire. Consider the Accounting and Business School of the Rockies today by contacting us at 303-755-6885 or http://www.ABSRschool.com to get a FREE consultation about your next educational adventure.
