- Summary:
-
According to data from the Job Corps' Student Pay, Allotment and Management Information System (SPAMIS), approximately 54% of all individuals enrolled in the Job Corps program in 1993 received training in the state where they lived. The extent to which Job Corps participants were served in centers located within their state of residence varied widely by state, however. More than 80% of Job Corps participants residing in Hawaii, Minnesota, Missouri, Nevada, New York, and Utah received training in their own state, whereas fewer than 20% of Job Corps participants residing in Alaska, Illinois, South Carolina, and Wisconsin received Job Corps training in their home state. Six states did not have any Job Corps centers operating within their boundaries. The data contained in SPAMIS also confirmed that, as of 1993, Job Corps program capacity varied by state. Six states (Kentucky, Oklahoma, Montana, Utah, Vermont, and West Virginia) had more than twice as many available slots as participants, whereas three states (Colorado, Louisiana, and South Carolina) had more than twice as many Job Corps participants as available slots.
