Work Search Requirements
TWC has reinstated state work search requirements, which were suspended in March due to COVID-19. Work search requirements resume on November 1, 2020. Work search is a federal requirement to receive unemployment benefits. Individuals will continue to receive benefits but must show an active effort to obtain new employment. All individuals receiving unemployment benefits will need to complete the designated number of work searches. For Southeast Texas, the required number of work searches is three. Click

Career Exploration
Demand Occupations
A “demand” occupation is one in which large numbers of job openings are likely to occur in that occupation. Operationally, a demand occupation is defined as one in which there are above average projected annual job openings without regard to salary, educational requirements, or other factors.
Targeted Occupations
Targeted occupations are a subset of demand occupations that also meet various job quality criteria set forth by our local Board. Targeted occupations offer both good employment growth prospects and wages and are occupations for which the Board can dedicate WIOA training resources
