TAMPA - Hillsborough Community College is getting nearly $500,000 from the federal Department of Labor for training in advanced manufacturing using the Internet or other electronic methods.

It was one of 20 projects picked from a pool of 193 applicants.

Gulf Coast Community College in Panama City was selected for its proposal that also focuses on advanced manufacturing. It will receive about the same amount as HCC.

The purpose of the $10 million grant program is to "increase workers' access to skills training through the Internet, video teleconferencing and other technology-based media," Labor Secretary Elaine Chao said.
