Oakton CC: Free 7 Credit Web Design Class 4 Vulnerable Populations

But how does one know if one qualifies? Hypothetically if one is mixed race and jewish and refuses to write down ethnicity when it is an option on documents, but knows one would qualify for skin color, but their ethnicity may be marked different for other purposes I have seen situations like that, I think " women of color" is a little too vague of a criteria. Not trying to cause a lengthy debate, just want to suggest the program to some I think may qualify.

Higher on the page, it says:

Quote:YWeb Academy program provides education in digital skills to traditionally underrepresented or vulnerable populations, such as women of color, survivors of domestic violence, and low-wage workers.

So I do not think that they are going to restrict entry to anyone. I read it as "if you feel these criteria apply to you, this program is open to you".
