​Get Paid While Learning a New Trade or Skill:  The Cape May County Workforce Development On-The-Job Training program provides an opportunity for unemployed workers to learn a new trade while being paid up to 26 weeks. The goal is for workers to learn while on the job which can lead to full-time employment.​​

The One-Stop Center is staffed with an OJT specialist for those seeking more information and discuss current employers participating in the program.

The Cape May County One-Stop Center is funded under the Work Force Innovation Opportunity Act (WIOA), a federally funded training and job program that creates a new approach, providing workforce activities through statewide and local systems. ​​ The program is not an entitlement.
