Indiana residents seeking free or low-cost training through the state’s Workforce
Innovation and Opportunity Act now have the option to complete Trine University online
degree programs in in-demand areas such as business, information systems, manufacturing
technology and healthcare.
Through an agreement with WorkOne and INTraining, eligible Hoosiers can receive state
funding to complete associate degrees in business administration, information systems
or manufacturing technology; or bachelor’s degrees in accounting, human resource management,
information systems, manufacturing technology, psychology or healthcare administration.
The programs are offered through TrineOnline, providing the convenience of online
delivery, 24/7/365 academic support and career-ready skills.
“We know that with the current economic uncertainty, many Hoosiers are seeking to
enhance their job prospects, and we are pleased to be able to help them take that
next step in their career path,” said Keirsten Eberts, assistant vice president and
dean of academics for TrineOnline. “TrineOnline’s academic programs have been developed
to meet industry needs and are designed to fit the schedules of busy adults.”
The university plans to add more programs in areas such as health sciences in the
future.
Those interested in obtaining funding for TrineOnline degree programs can apply by
going to indianacareerready.com or visiting their local WorkOne, and filling out the
form for free job training. Applicants must be Indiana residents, have a high school
diploma or equivalent but less than a college degree, and be eligible for state financial
aid.
