Idaho Job Corps FAQs

Home  Job Seekers  Idaho Job Corps  FAQs

How does the program work?

Students can enroll in Idaho Job Corps for three months to up to 24 months, depending on the educational program and individual needs. Once admitted, students will engage in extensive career exploration and will work closely with an academic adviser who will help set up a career pathway. Each student will participate in work-based learning, life skills coaching, physical fitness and service learning.

What does Idaho Job Corps pay for?

Idaho Job Corps may provide students with meals, pay for tuition/fees, child care, clothes and in some cases transportation. Additionally, students will receive a small stipend for participating in the program.

How often do classes start?

A new class starts about every six weeks.

Do I have to live on campus?

No. The program is designed to be non-residential, and we have many transportation options to support our enrolled students.

Can I live on campus?

There is a limited residential program at the Nampa campus only. Please contact us for more information.

How is Idaho Job Corps different from the federal program?

Idaho Job Corps offers training through the local community colleges giving you many more training options.

What is expected of IJC students?

We expect all of our students to participate in at least 30 hours of activities each week. These include academics, service learning, life skills, fitness and other campus activities.

Do you have child care?

While we do not have on-site child care, IJC can help with child care expenses for actively engaged participants.
