Adult Vocational Training — Long-Term
Tuition assistance for enrolled Comanche members in long-term vocational or trade programs of 600 hours or more — up to $2,500 every 525 hours, capped at $10,000 in total, plus up to $600 every 525 hours for supplies.
Who's eligible
Tribal Citizens Only
The Higher Education page describes Adult Vocational Training as providing "financial assistance to enrolled Comanche tribal members who are attending accredited vocational or trade schools for long-term training programs that are 600 hours or longer." The CNG guidelines add that CNG funds go to "tribal members that reside outside of the 5-county (Comanche, Caddo, Cotton, Tillman, and Stephens) area in southwestern Oklahoma," receiving "tuition assistance only," and separately up to $600.00 every 525 hours "in order to help them purchase supplies." Students "must be enrolled in a program for a school period of at least nine (9) months, not to exceed twenty-four (24) months." Tuition assistance is capped at "$2,500.00 every 525 hours," and "Total payments for tuition assistance shall not exceed $10,000.00," with additional payments possible for longer programs.
Where it's offered
State
As with Short-Term Training, the CNG-funded stream is defined by residence OUTSIDE a five-county area (Comanche, Caddo, Cotton, Tillman and Stephens), which the model cannot represent as an inclusion, so no structured service area is attached.
