The Department of Labor's Employment & Training Administration (ETA)
funds job training programs to improve the employment prospects of
adults,
youth, and
dislocated workers.
These programs are delivered primarily by states through the
One-Stop Career Center System.
Training programs can vary from state to state depending on the skills that are
needed to compete for jobs in the local area. All programs are aimed at
boosting workers' employability and earnings.
ETA's Web site provides a
clickable
map of One-Stop Centers' web sites for each state. You can also find
information on local training programs by visiting
America's Service Locator or
calling ETA's toll-free help line at (877) US2-JOBS.
Training programs aimed at improving safety
and health in the workplace are provided by the Department's
Occupational
Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) and
Mine Safety Health
Administration (MSHA). These programs are designed to teach workers and
employers how to recognize, avoid, and prevent safety and health hazards at
their worksites.
