If you are a displaced worker, it may interest you to know that the Workforce Alliance of South Central Kansas has recently approved Newman’s OTA program for scholarship assistance to eligible “WIA” participants. A complete listing of WIA-approved training programs at NU is available by clicking on “Training Providers” at the Kansas Job Link site. Hospitals, long-term care corporations, and other health care related agencies frequently offer tuition assistance in exchange for a promise to work at their facilities upon graduation. For OTA tuition assistance through Via Christi Health Systems, for example, contact Carolyn Cowart, Education Coordinator, at 316-268-8204 or at Carolyn_cowart@via-christi.org. For information on other forms of grant, loan and scholarship assistance, please contact Brenda Krehbiel by emailing krehbielb@newmanu.edu, or visiting Newman’s Financial Aid department.
