Workforce Investment Act

The Workforce Investment Act (WIA) is a federal program that provides funding for educational and training programs at various community colleges throughout the Nation. Students of Copiah-Lincoln Community College (Co-Lin), who meet eligibility requirements for the WIA program, receive federal aid to support their educational endeavors and encourage their entrance into the workforce.

Funds typically cover the cost of tuition and books during the last two semesters of certain four-semester training programs. Those interested in obtaining more information should contact one of Co-Lin's four WIA Education and Training Coordinators indentified below. Those interested may also submit an on-line information request form by following the "Information Request" link on the left side of this screen.
