Teacher Externship Program
The Texas Workforce Commission’s Teacher Externship Program helps teachers learn directly from local employers about workplace expectations, career pathways, and in-demand skills. Teachers take that knowledge back to the classroom to help students better understand their options after graduation and prepare for future success.
Incumbent Worker Training Program
Incumbent workers are defined as employees who have been employed six months before the training. This program enables businesses to strengthen their ability to compete in the job market by training incumbent employees in areas they determine are needed. The purpose is to prepare employees to better perform their jobs to avoid layoffs.
