Not exactly one-stop (maybe 3 or 4 stops), but he did mention WIA. They are covering tuition for three classes and we are trying to figure out the books now. netWORKS is willing to cover the cost, but because the books need to be purchased through an online site instead of the school bookstore, we are running into a snag. They won't reimburse me, so the admissions office is working with the bookstore to see if they can get in all of the books. I have no idea how they will pay for the WestLaw susbscription.
Just a sidenote. The place that I went was attached to the Welfare Office. Honestly, I was afraid that things were going to be stolen from my car. Most of the people in there were getting information on their GED. The counselor nearly dropped his pen when he asked my education and what I was making. He also asked if I went through the "job book" in the lobby. Yes, but I really don't plan to make a living as a landscaper.
