Good Jobs Hawaii

Good Jobs Hawaii offers short-term trainings leading to industry credentials and in-demand occupations in the resilient sectors of Healthcare, Technology and Skilled Trades.

The program provides tuition assistance for eligible applicants in the form of subsidies for tuition and other training costs like books and industry certification exam fees. Some trainings provide a 100% tuition subsidy to cover all training costs and others may require a student co-payment.

We encourage you to carefully review the available trainings and contact us at training@hawaii.edu if you have questions prior to applying. New trainings will continue to be scheduled throughout the year. Please note: you may only apply for one training at this time (multiple applications are not accepted).
