They can no longer afford to wait. Now, Michigan is taking the next step to help thousands of displaced workers who need new skills and training to transition to a new career. By redirecting the state and federal dollars already used for worker training programs, we can open wide the doors of education and training to every displaced worker in Michigan who needs it.
