Dislocated Worker Information Sessions

What are Dislocated Worker Services?

Dislocated Worker services are designed to help people who have been laid off through no fault of their own get back to work as quickly as possible. Sometimes people have barriers to finding employment quickly. These barriers to employment can include a change in demand for your previous occupation, such as we have seen for certain occupations during COVID-19, or other challenges to finding work. 

Services for eligible people can include: 

  • Career planning and counseling 
  • Job search assistance 
  • Connections to employers hiring now 
  • Counselor-approved training 
  • Other support services

July Dislocated Worker Schedule

Sign up to be virtually prescreened and receive information via email, phone and/or Skype about the Dislocated Worker Program, eligibility criteria, process and how it helps job seekers get back to work. 

Mondays in July 2021:  (These are all activated in Minnesotaworks.net)
