    What programs are open to u through WIA depend on the state. In Florida they would fund only ROADMASTERS & the amount dropped from full payment to partial. I think it differs from county to county as well as state to state.

    Here in Louisiana I went to school through the M.E.T program which
    is basiclly the same thing as WIA. They paid a total of $5400 for the
    schooling, $200 for a food vouchre, and paid me $6.15 and hour for
    every hour of schooling. The hourly pay came out to two checks total-
    ing around $490.00 each or close to that. The requirements were that
    I had to have a job for at least 14 months following graduation. The
    funny thing about it is that the job did not even have to be CDL related
    as long as you held a job for 14 months. That was not a problem for me
    whatsoever, when I graduated I started driving and am still with the
    same company. The ladies that helped me get funding were very nice
    and helpfull, they even called one day aobut 5 months after school and
    asked if I wanted another food voucher. Seems that they had some
    funding left and had to get rid of it before it was taken back by the
    state.

    Every state decided to take it after all. Also it was South Carolina not North Carolina.
