WPE Business Engagement works with large and small public entities and private employers to provide affordable training for employees and management in a variety of areas. Professional Development Training in most cases is Grant Funded and may be customized to individual company needs.

  • We hold classes at the OCC Main Campus, OCC Manahawkin, remotely, or at your location.
  • You may send your employees to public open enrollment classes that we post routinely and conduct at OCC or OCC Manahawkin.
  • Requested training may be dedicated to a company wishing to train its employees.
