Workforce Services Information Notice
WSIN19-46

Issued: May 27, 2020

There is a greater need for internet, phone, and other telecommunications to help individuals stay connected and access employment, education, and training resources during the COVID-19 pandemic. In response, the California Department of Social Services (CDSS) developed a list of resources for Distance Learning (PDF) that provides information on the following:

  • Free or low-cost internet access
  • Digital Literacy
  • Video Conferencing platforms
  • Education and distance learning resources

America's Job Center of CaliforniaSM partners may share the CDSS list of available resources for Distance Learning to help job seekers connect and participate in workforce development activities.

Note, the Employment Development Department does not endorse any particular internet provider or company on the list. This information is being shared in response to the critical need of online resources during this time of crisis.
