Unemployed Students May Be Eligible for Workforce Development Grant

admin — Mon, 08 Feb 2021 16:43:16 +0000

Did you know that American National University has an outstanding record of helping displaced workers return to the workforce? Thanks to our exclusive Workforce Development Grant, which provides up to $7,500 to eligible students to supplement federal, state, and local workforce programs, those affected by layoffs are able to train for a new career, fast, with little or no out-of-pocket costs.

American National University has recently been re-approved for the Workforce Innovation and Opportunity Act (WIOA) Title I program. The WIOA program provides government funds for laid-off workers to enroll in approved programs for additional education that will give them greater opportunities. By helping them learn and develop new skills, we prepare unemployed workers for careers in the evolving global economy.

WIOA program approval extends to the following courses:

Pharmacy Technician (Diploma and Associate’s)
Paralegal (Diploma and Associate’s)
Phlebotomy & ECG Diploma
Network Support Associate’s
Business Administration Associate’s
Business Administration – Accounting (Diploma and Associate’s)
Medical Coding & Billing Diploma
Medical Assisting (Certificate and Associate’s)
Health Information Management Associate’s
Administrative Medical Assisting Associate’s

The application was approved by the Western Virginia Workforce Development Board (WVWDB) and Chief Local Elected Officials (CLEO) in Local Workforce Development Area 3 (LWDA3).

Completing the FAFSA as soon as possible is important as you will be first in line for certain state funding, such as in Tennessee and Kentucky.

Our Financial Aid Office can help you navigate the process, from federal and state aid programs to American National University’s own grant and scholarship programs. ANU provided more than $6 million in institutional aid in the 2018-2019 academic year.

Some tips

Paralegal Cost Reductions

admin — Fri, 02 Oct 2020 18:51:22 +0000

The paralegal associate’s degree and paralegal studies certificate have become even more affordable. While American National University was able to reduce the costs of the program, ANU has retained its characteristic instructional quality as both programs are still approved by the American Bar Association. ANU reduced costs by making previously mandatory classes optional, though these classes are still available for enrollment.

The paralegal associate’s degree now costs $21,528 before consideration of any financial aid*, with all costs included. The paralegal studies certificate is now $10,640, all-inclusive, before financial aid*. The certificate is best for individuals who already hold a college degree and are looking for more career-focused skills.

Paralegal associate’s students must complete 92 credit hours (20 months) and paralegal studies certificate students must complete 28 credit hours (8 months). With the ability to transfer relevant credits up to 75% of the program total, students can complete either program in even less time.

*Financial aid available to those who qualify. See https://virginia.an.edu/admissions/financial-assistance/scholarships-and-grants/
