Step 1: Determine if Workforce Education might be a good option for you
Workforce Education provides services to low-income individuals and dislocated workers to help them achieve their academic and career goals. We provide funding for tuition, fees, and potentially other costs like books and transportation for eligible students in approved programs of study.
To see if you pre-qualify for our services, review our “Do I Qualify for Workforce Education?” flyer; take a brief survey at StartNextQuarter.org; or learn more about a specific program and its eligibility criteria at the links below:

Step 2: Attend a Workforce Education Online Information Session
Attend an online information session. Please do not skip this, as it covers important information and will answer frequently asked questions. There are two options:
- Option #1: Register for a live Zoom information session. Sessions are offered weekly on Tuesdays at 2:30pm. After registering, you will receive a confirmation email containing information about how to join the meeting.
OR
- Option #2: Download the online information session as a PowerPoint presentation. To hear the recorded audio, click the Slide Show tab and then click From Beginning; or click the “speaker” symbol on each slide. An audio transcript is also available for download (Word document): Transcript – WE Online Info Session
Step 3: Submit the Forms
Fill out two forms: WE Intake Eligibility Application and WE Individual Employment Plan.
- TIP #1: Download the forms and save to your computer. Then open the documents in Adobe Acrobat Reader DC. Here is a tip sheet.
- TIP #2: On the Eligibility Application, leave the Social Security Number field blank for now.
The forms may be completed and signed electronically or printed and scanned.
Submit both forms to workforce-ed@bellevuecollege.edu. If the “Submit” button on the form doesn’t work, you can attach your completed files to an email or upload them using our Upload Documents page. If you have trouble completing the forms, please contact us so we can help you problem-solve.
Step 4: Initial Intake Appointment with Advisor
Wait for a call from Workforce Education staff to set up an initial intake appointment. Options for remote appointments include phone, Microsoft Teams, or Zoom; in-person appointments are available upon request.
