For community colleges
Workforce Pell ties your funding to verified job placement. Most programs aren't ready.
Starting July 1, 2026, federal funding for short-term programs depends on a placement rate the state verifies against wage records, not the numbers institutions publish today. Job Machine is the AI that produces and proves real placement, program by program, before the verification arrives.
Verification begins
July 1, 2026
Funding tied to placement the state verifies against wage records.
The stakes
Clear the threshold and your programs keep their funding. Miss it, and eligibility is lost, with a multi-year lockout and no rebranding the program back to life. The number the state calculates, and what your programs publish today, are about to diverge.
See where you actually stand
An honest read of each program against the verified standard, before the state runs it.
Produce real placement
The AI does the production work, so placement happens by design, not by hope.
Defend your numbers
Real placements with the evidence to back them, program by program, year after year.
Your career-services team was built to advise students who walk in, not to systematically place every graduate into a job that shows up in state wage data.
What happens now.
- Tailored
- Applied
- Scheduled
- Prepped
Every graduate gets worked
Tailored, applied, scheduled, prepped, so placement is produced, not hoped for.
- Offer letters
- Employment proof
- By program
Verification you can defend
Offer letters and employment proof captured automatically, program by program.
A head start on the cliff
Stand up the placement engine now, while there's still runway before verification begins.
