To be eligible for TAA, a worker must have been employed in the commercial aircraft division and must have been laid off between March 24, 1999, and February 25, 2002. Services available include: employment counseling, vocational testing, on the job training, classroom training, job search workshops, job search allowance and relocation assistance.
