Unlocking Workforce Pell Access

This session will explain the new FAFSA process and outline program eligibility criteria for the new Workforce Pell Grant. This exciting new federal program expands Pell Grant eligibility to short-term job-training programs that have historically been excluded from federal higher education funding. However, programs have to meet a steep new set of requirements if students are to receive the grant. We show participants how using the right tools can make for a more efficient experience for both institutions and adult learners.
