Under the new law, the Pell Grant will now cover short-term, career-oriented certificate programs that range from 150 to 599 clock hours or are a credit-based equivalent between eight to 14 weeks in length. In order to be eligible for Workforce Pell, programs will have to exist and meet eligibility criteria for at least one year.

We know that today's workforce, much of it requires a college education, so it's almost a necessary criterion to earn a living wage in today's society.
