What is the PA CareerLink®?: The PA CareerLink ® is a “One-Stop “center, providing an array of career and workforce development services to employers and jobseekers, as mandated by the Workforce Investment Act of 1998. The PA CareerLink ® provides customers-both employers and jobseekers-with convenient access to a wide range of employment and training resources through a single location, and when possible, through internet linkages. By integrating the resources of collaborating agencies, the PA CareerLink ® delivers an enhanced level of services with fewer hassles.
Employer Services On-the-Job Training (OJT) for New Hires Drastically reduce new employee training costs with our On-the-Job Training (OJT) Program. For new, full-time, eligible employees, your company may be reimbursed 50% of their wages during an initial training period. This would be implemented if a qualified candidate doesn’t have all the necessary skills required to perform all expected duties. An OJT is a hands-on funded job training that allows a registered employer to train one of our qualified jobseekers for a specific job within your own workplace. Please contact us BEFORE you hire.
Incumbent Worker Training The Incumbent Worker Training Program (IWT) provides funding to help cover the costs of training needed to retain a competitive workforce. Such training is meant to assist with expansion, new technology, retooling, new services/product lines, organizational restructuring, or even avert layoffs.
