Job Corps

Free Career Training for Ages 16-24

If you're ready for more than just another short-term job, Job Corps can help you take the next step. Explore hands-on career training in fields like construction, health care, IT, hospitality, transportation, and more — with housing, meals, healthcare, and support included.

 

Job Corps is built for young adults who want a real path forward. Whether you already have a career field in mind or you're still figuring it out, this is a place to build skills, gain direction, and move toward a more secure future.

Real students come to Job Corps looking for a next step — and leave with stronger skills, more confidence, and a clearer sense of where they’re headed.

More Than Career Training

Job Corps gives students more than a classroom experience. Along with free career training, students can access:
    • Free housing
    • Meals
    • Healthcare
    • Life-skills support

Support That Helps You Follow Through

Starting something new can feel overwhelming. Job Corps is designed to help students keep going with guidance through the admissions process, practical daily support, and preparation for what comes after training.

A Real Opportunity for Ages 16-24

Job Corps opens the door for young adults who want direction earlier than many other programs allow. It gives students time to build skills, confidence, and momentum while they are still shaping what comes next.

A Path Toward a Career, Not Just Your Next Paycheck

This is not about finding another temporary option and ending up in the same place a few months later. Job Corps helps students move toward a future with more stability, stronger skills, and a clearer direction.

Who We Serve

Job Corps serves young adults ages 16–24 who want a practical path forward and need more than a generic training program.

Students may be interested in pathways such as:

  • Construction
  • Health Care
  • Information Technology
  • Business and Finance
  • Hospitality
  • Transportation
  • Manufacturing
  • Public Safety and Security
  • Renewable Resources

Whether a student already knows what field they want or is still exploring their options, Job Corps gives them a place to start moving forward with real structure and support.
