Were you laid off from your job between 2002-2024? You may qualify for FREE training and other employment-related resources, even if you are currently working!
The Trade Adjustment Assistance (TAA) Program is a federal program that provides aid to workers who lose their jobs, or are at risk of losing their jobs, or whose hours of work and wages are reduced as a result of foreign competition.
TAA may cover expenses for training, certifications to advance you in your current career, job search and relocation for new employment.
TAA services are available to eligible workers, but you need to act now.
