poltr1Last week, I went to an orientation session on the Workplace Investment Act (WIA) and began the application process. I was pursuing this as an avenue for funding additional training. Yesterday, I completed the application process and provided the requested paperwork. Today, my caseworker presented my case to the board. The board's response? I am marketable with the skill set I have right now.

But it doesn't work that way. IT is not like a traditional skilled trade, with apprentices, journeymen, and masters. Mostly because the technology changes so much.
