The Pima County Board of Supervisors granted $5.3 million to the Micro-pathways program on April 5, 2022.
The money from Pima County enabled Pima Community College to hire program navigators and career coaches. Money allocated from Pima County also goes toward apprentice scholarships for students who need that experience.

The new PCC Automotive Technology and Innovation Center is a state of the art training facility for students interested in the automotive industry.
The program provides training opportunities and workforce education at little to no cost for Pima County residents who were affected by layoffs, furloughs, and other changes in the labor market during the COVID-19 pandemic.
The program typically lasts three months or less for students and focuses on helping them find careers in health care, automotive technology, plumbing, EMS (emergency medical services), HVAC (heating, ventilation, and air conditioning), cybersecurity, electrical work, and welding.
