>Comprehensive reporting features for both employers and job seekers

There will also be staff available from our training grant programs to talk to job seekers about how our free grant programs can help job seekers get started in a satisfying and good paying career.
“Our free training grant program prepares jobseekers for employment in the Trades and/or Advanced Manufacturing with a goal of becoming apprentice, says RADAR Case Manager Brianne Nobile. “Since July, we’ve had more than 50 job seekers begin their apprenticeships at a good starting wage. Apprentices train under the direction of experienced workers, earning about half of what a fully qualified worker makes, with a median wage of up to $72,000 per year. And apprentices earn pay increases as they advance in their training. Stop by our booth and talk to us at the job fair to find out how you can join our program!”
