Ready to Work is an education and job placement program to help thousands of San Antonio residents improve their quality of life and achieve professional success.

San Antonio City Council recently approved contracts for community partners to implement the $200 million SA: Ready to Work program.

The city expects to place more than 28,000 people into either certification and degree programs through Ready to Work and subsequently get at least 15,700 of them into “high-quality,” in-demand jobs.

The City of San Antonio’s Train for Jobs SA program has struggled to meet its promised results, but there’s hope for a voter-approved program set to begin in the spring.
