Dislocated Worker Program
Minnesota's Dislocated Worker Program serves people who have lost their job through no fault of their own. A wide variety of services are available for eligible individuals, including training that can be critical to succeeding in a job search or new profession. Benchmark Learning works with the Dislocated Worker Program to help students get the most out of their training benefits by working together to combine the right content with the right training delivery. Our online skill assessments allow us to build customized learn plans that pinpoint which courses or certifications are needed to help achieve each student’s goals. These and other services are available at no cost to program participants who meet eligibility requirements.
