Idaho Launch Program
For Idaho residents, the Idaho Workforce Development Council offers a workforce grant that will support the RN or LPN fees for the NRP through a program called Idaho Launch.
Idaho Launch is a program of the Idaho Workforce Development Council that provides financial support to Idahoans for approved training. The Nurse Refresher Program has been approved for support through Idaho Launch. Before you start your training program, please visit this link and fill in the form: Idaho Launch Nursing Refresher Program. Once you fill out the form, you will be instructed to create an Idaho Works account if you don’t already have one. You will also be contacted by a career planner from the Idaho Department of Labor. The career planner will walk you through the process of enrolling in Idaho Launch.
Idaho Launch is currently unavailable. Applications will resume on August 1, 2024.
