Payment Options-Funding Assistance
Because NIC Workforce Training Center offers programs and courses that are non-credit, federal financial aid (FAFSA) is not available. However, scholarships, payment plans, and other options are available to help students with educational financing.
Payment Plan
The payment plan enables students and families to spread educational expenses over equal monthly installments. Payment plans break down your tuition balance into affordable monthly payments. There is no interest, payment options are flexible, setup fees are affordable, and it’s easy to enroll!

Only partial scholarships are awarded. *Please wait to hear back from the scholarship committee prior to signing up for other payment options.* The remainder of the payment is due at time of registration.
