Kansas Commerce Department Announces Training Opportunities Available to Employers Through KTRAIN

Lieutenant Governor and Secretary of Commerce David Toland today announced the rebranding of the Kansas Workforce Aligned with Industry Demand (AID) program to Kansas Training and Retention Aligned with Industry Need (KTRAIN).

KTRAIN will retain that focus with opportunities for even more engagement and concentration on program aspects.

We are excited to launch KTRAIN as a means to make our talent pipeline prepared to meet the needs of the private sector.”
