ASTD has become an approved training provider in the District of Columbia, New York, and Virginia. This means that customers in these states who have received public funding for training through the Workforce Investment Act (WIA) may take these courses using their training vouchers or other public funding. One recent exciting addition is the approval of a bundled offering of CPLP preparation and testing fees!

In both New York and Virginia, approval has been granted state-wide, so any customer using the services of a local OneStop Center will find ASTD in the list of approved providers. Check with the staff at your local OneStop Career Center to find out more details about your eligibility to apply for funding, especially if you have been in a job transition. You can search for your closest OneStop Center at www.careeronestop.org.
