Ready-to-Work

1. What is the Ready to Work program?

Agency referrals

2. What are the requirements to participate in the RTW program?

Participants must be parents who are receiving K-tap benefits or other income requirements who are seeking a certificate, diploma or degree in a KCTCS college.

3. What is "Work Study?"

Ready to Work provides work opportunities both on-campus and off-campus through Work Study programs. Parents gain work experience while earning extra income that will not reduce their K-tap checks.
