TRENTON – Legislation sponsored by Senator Sandra Bolden Cunningham that allows the New Jersey Community College Consortium for Workforce and Economic Development to request additional funding from the state to provide basic skills training to help displaced and disadvantaged workers learn the skills they need to successfully return to the workforce was signed into law today.
“Many of New Jersey’s displaced workers and unemployed are unable to find work because they do not possess the skills needed in the changing global workforce that relies more heavily on computers, technology and math skills,” said Senator Cunningham, D-Hudson. “The New Jersey Community College Consortium for Workforce and Economic Development, through our state’s county colleges, provides programs to fill training gaps for many of these unemployed and displaced workers. I am pleased that we are able to provide additional funding for these programs so that they can continue to expand this successful model.”

“Many workers in New Jersey continue to remain unemployed because they do not posses the skills needed to enter a global job market that is based more on technology, math and sciences,” said Senator Cunningham, D-Hudson. “The New Jersey Community College Consortium for Workforce and Economic Development offers unique programs throughout the state to train and educate displaced and unemployed workers so they may enhance and grow their skills and find employment in today’s economy.”

“Math, computer and technology are part of a growing list of skills needed for New Jersey’s workers to compete in today’s evolving global workforce.
