About Us

In 1962, President John F. Kennedy and Congress enacted the Manpower Training and Development Act. This legislation lead to establishing skills training and job placement opportunities for unemployed and unskilled American Citizens.

The Delaware Skills Center has provided skills training and job placement since 1962. All courses are taught through hands on training and classroom instruction.
The Delaware Skills Center has trained and successfully provided employment opportunities for over 9,500 graduates for over 40 years.
