Serving Maverick County. WIOA clients can walk in daily without an appointment and ask for the WIOA program; there may be a wait. Staff said applicants’ residency/address documentation must match the area they apply in; Del Rio residents should apply through Del Rio. Staff confirmed ATI’s online/distance electrical program being listed under McAllen is not by itself a barrier when it is on the statewide ETPL. Staff described a $7,500 local cap; ATI explained that eligible WIOA students may also qualify for an ATI scholarship to cover the funding gap, with the student balance shown as $0. For sponsorship, staff may request an acceptance letter, cost breakdown showing the funding split and zero student balance, and a program schedule with start/end dates; ask ATI for these documents. The office uses an attendance form with a daily student signature/initial and wants it completed monthly by month-end. Alert staff promptly if a student is struggling or falling behind.
