    I just got a letter from my state employment office telling me that President Obama has announced that people on unemployment compensation (like myself) may receive financial aid to pay for job training.

    Just how would I access this financial aid to pay for truck school with CR England or others?

    Re-announced maybe. It's been there for decades. Call the office that sent the letter of course.

    If you were going to use this money for training with CRE I wouldn't let you have it. Read some of the stories on them and decide whether you want to waste money like that. I'm sure it varies from State to State how to apply for it. Check with your local unemployment office for the correct way to obtain the loan.
