Arizona workforce funding
Can ARIZONA@WORK pay for a Nevada course?
Sometimes. Arizona’s WIOA training money is handed out through ARIZONA@WORK, which is organised by region, so the office you use depends on where you live. The City of Phoenix has its own office, separate from the rest of Maricopa County.
Arizona has a reciprocal agreement with Nevada, and Pretty In Ink Brow Academy is an approved training provider recognized by the State of Nevada for eligible workforce funding programs. Arizona usually looks for a comparable Arizona program first, and each office makes its own decision. The academy cannot approve, promise or speed up funding from ARIZONA@WORK.
Talk to your ARIZONA@WORK office before you pay a deposit or book flights. If they say yes, we will give them whatever they need from the academy.
