Program Details



As a small business owner, the need for additional assistance is ever-present, but the financial resources to support that need are often limited. However, thanks to the WIOA (Workforce Innovation and Opportunity Act) program, we found an invaluable solution to this challenge.

Aleyna Bayat, an intern from Germany provided through the WIOA program, has been nothing short of a game-changer for our company. Her presence has allowed us to meet our day-to-day operational demands and significantly contributed to our marketing efforts for our company and clients.

One of the standout projects Aleyna undertook was her pivotal role in marketing the Total Solar Eclipse event in Fairfield, Illinois, in April 2024. She was responsible for designing tickets, crafting marketing materials, and even coordinating special guests for our podcasts. Her dedication, creativity, and work ethic were instrumental in meeting the vastly approaching deadline.

The impact of the WIOA Workforce Program on our business has been immeasurable, enabling us to thrive and grow in ways that would have been challenging otherwise. I am profoundly grateful for this program and its flexibility in allowing us to bring on interns like Aleyna, even when they are participating in study abroad programs.

Aleyna's contribution has helped our business flourish and provided her invaluable real-world experience. It's a win-win situation that exemplifies the power and potential of programs like WIOA in fostering individual and business success.
