The STEP serves workers who would often be ineligible for employment training assistance through other programs. It offers workers the opportunity to acquire skills by investing in themselves, and helps those workers who have been displaced from their jobs to learn more skills. Nearly 60 percent of those entering the program are receiving unemployment benefits, and over 80 percent of the participants successfully complete the training and increase their employment opportunities. The STEP will expire June 30, 1996, unless renewed by the Legislature.
