The program is administered through the Veterans Administra tion, Department of Labor and State Job Service. The rules are simple.

This includes those laid off due to current economic conditions and are seeking retraining in more stable occupations, and veterans re cently graduating from college. The occupational training must be in a growth industry, or one re quiring the use o f new technological skills, or in an occupation where there is a labor shortage. Of special interest to bankers is the fact that the U.S. Department of Labor has determined that banking is a growth industry; consequently, any banking job that requires a three-month or greater training period in a bank is eligible under this legislation. A single page application blank for employers should be accom panied by a training outline for the job approval sought. Interested banks may contact the VA, State Job Service or Department of Labor.
