VA program offers education and training for Veterans

Friday, July 22, 2022

Veterans who lost jobs due to the COVID-19 pandemic are being offered education and training for a variety of high-demand jobs through the Veteran Rapid Retraining Assistance Program (VRRAP). The VRRAP is a program of the Veterans Administration.

Qualifying Veterans can receive up to 12 months of tuition and fees along with a monthly housing allowance.

To be eligible for VRRAP, Veterans must be between 22 and 66 years of age, unemployed due to COVID-19, able to work, and not eligible for education or unemployment benefits.

The program will stop accepting new VRRAP enrollments on December 11, 2022 — or when it reaches either the funding or participant limit, whichever comes first.

the NLx collects and distributes job openings exclusively found on state job banks, corporate career websites and federal government job sites. It currently lists over 4 million positions daily. 

Through Friday, July 15, employers can directly post their jobs to the NLx at no cost. These positions will remain online for up to 30 days. (Note: it may take up to 24 hours for job postings to be processed and become visible.) 

Job seekers are also encouraged to utilize NLx for their search. Currently, all 50 states, District of Columbia, Puerto Rico, US Virgin Islands, and Guam have agreements with the NLx, and there is no cost to users.

Job Service and NDDoH Websites now accessible in 16 languages

Tuesday, June 14, 2022 at 10:00 am

As part of a pilot program with North Dakota Information Technology, the websites for both Job Service North Dakota and the North Dakota Department of Health are now accessible in 16 languages. The capability launched in early June at www.jobsnd.com and health.nd.gov

“This will allow thousands of people easier access to and understanding of our services,” said Pat Bertagnolli, Job Service Executive Director. “We have large populations of New Americans across the state and they’re a vital part of our workforce. Offering easier accessibility to everyone allows us to better serve all North Dakotans and gives us a leg up as far as recruiting.” 

“NDDoH is pleased to be part of the website translation pilot,” said Dr. Nizar Wehbi, North Dakota State Health Officer. “The ability for residents who either speak English as a second language or do not speak English to be able to easily access public health information that they understand is an important breakthrough for our website.” 

Internet viewers can select their preferred language from a dropdown at the top of any page.  The initial offerings are English, Arabic, Basque, Bosnian, Chinese, French, Hindi, Hmong, Kurdish, Nepali, Pashto, Punjabi, Somali, Spanish, Swahili and Vietnamese. More languages, and other state agency websites  are expected to be added.
