Workforce Pell Fees

Use the Workforce Pell Fees tab on the Program Versions page to add and delete records for Workforce Pell Fees. Beginning with the 2026-27 award year, Workforce Pell enables students to use Federal grant funds to enroll in high-quality, short-term programs that offer education in high-skill, high-wage or in-demand industry sectors or occupations.

When a student is Workforce Pell Eligible, the school must include tuition and fees for the student's workforce program in the Pell Grant export through the <WorkforcePellTuitionAndFees> tag. Schools configure the tuition and fees amount per program version and award year on the Workforce Pell Fees tab. For more details about the <WorkforcePellTuitionAndFees> tag, refer to Workforce Pell Tuition and Fees (WPTF).
