How We Verify Job Training and Workforce Resource Guides
A source-led policy for career help, job centers, apprenticeship resources, training safety and employment-service pages.
What This Policy Covers
This policy covers job-center resources, apprenticeships, workforce development, job training, career help, resume services, employer hiring resources and official employment-service directories.
Official Workforce Resources
For public workforce resources, we prioritize CareerOneStop, American Job Centers, state workforce agencies, apprenticeship.gov where relevant, and official state labor/workforce pages.
Students and Training Safety
Training pages should help users check cost, accreditation, completion data, job-placement claims, refund policy and official program recognition before enrolling or paying money.
Job Scam Safety
- Be cautious of jobs that ask for money upfront.
- Verify recruiter email domains and employer websites.
- Never send banking or identity documents through unverified links.
- Check official workforce centers before paying for “guaranteed” job placement.
Employer Resources
Employer-facing workforce content should focus on official resources, compliance links, hiring programs and safe referrals, not lead capture disguised as a government service.
Workforce Pages Should Reduce Confusion
Users need official job-help routes and scam warnings, not vague career filler.
