RevUp Montana gives job seekers access to training in high-demand fields

Over 2,000 Montana residents have received training for good-paying jobs though RevUp Montana, a workforce project supported by a $25 million federal grant from the U.S. Department of Labor’s Employment and Training Administration. The goal is to put students into short-term degree, certificate and apprenticeship programs that lead them into high-wage, high-demand jobs in the state. While most high-paying jobs still require 1-2 years of training at least, RevUp programs offer students a chance at quicker training so they can still enter the workforce with the ability to demonstrate the necessary skills.
