Basic Information

The Superfund Job Training Initiative, or SuperJTI, supports job training programs in communities affected by nearby Superfund sites and encourages the employment of trainees at local site cleanups. The SuperJTI program combines extensive classroom instruction with hands-on work experience for each participant. Upon completion of the program, each participant possesses the marketable skills required to become a valuable member of the community's workforce.

Through the SuperJTI program, EPA is helping communities to develop job training programs and partnerships that can extend well beyond the actual time required to clean up a site.
