Save Money

Job Corps can save you money by customizing and modifying its training programs to suit the specific needs, industry standards, and certifications of your business.

Save Time

Searching for new employees takes time. Waiting for them to settle in and make a difference takes more time. Partnering with Job Corps saves you time. Our students train on your equipment, understand your business, and are ready to make an impact upon arrival.

Provide Skilled Interns and Employees

Job Corps programs are aligned with industry-based skill standards, and most of our centers offer nationally recognized certifications. Our approach combines classroom instruction with practical experience. We call it work-based learning which means you have access to skilled interns, and you have an opportunity to see new employees in action before you hire them.

Earn Tax Credits

By hiring a Job Corps graduate, your business may be eligible for a tax credit. Many employers take advantage of the Work Opportunity Tax Credit Program.

Worry Less

Job Corps trains the whole person, including employability and social skills. Job Corps wants to make sure you get a great employee. That’s why we drug-screen our students and provide them with follow-up services for up to one year after the start of employment.

Improve Your Bottom Line

Partnering with Job Corps helps your business and our students. Whether your company is big or small, whether you’re looking for one employee or several, Job Corps can be your workforce resource. If you are interested in partnering with Job Corps, please contact business@jobcorps.gov.
