RetrainMap / Training costs by state

Free · the federal list, by published cost

What does a CDL, nursing, HVAC or welding program cost in your state? The federal record, sorted.

Search results for “cheapest CDL school in Georgia” are lead-generation sites with “estimated” prices. The U.S. Department of Labor holds the actual figures: every program a state approved for public training money, with the cost its provider reported and what happened to the people who finished. These pages print that record — 70,088 programs, snapshot 2026-09-02 — sorted by published cost, one page per state and program type. Snapshot taken 2026-09-02.

Read this first. Your local job center decides eligibility — this shows what is on the list and what it cost and produced, not whether you will be approved. No promise is made here about money, seats, jobs or pay; the figures are what the providers reported, printed with their dates.

The 20 program types

CDL truck driving, Nursing assistant (CNA), Medical assistant, LPN / LVN, Registered nurse (RN), Phlebotomy, EMT / paramedic, Dental assistant, Pharmacy technician, Medical billing and coding, Surgical technologist, Radiologic technologist, Veterinary technician, HVAC, Welding, Electrician, Plumbing, Automotive technician, IT support, Cosmetology. A program belongs to a type when any of the up-to-three occupation codes its provider reported matches; the codes are printed on each page.

The list is free. The ranking by what each program produced is $39.

This page sorts the programs in your state by the cost their providers published. The Retraining ROI report takes one target occupation and one state, ranks every listed program by the employment its completers reported, and — if you give your current pay — prints a payback estimate per program with its basis. Built on order from the same federal record; free sample on that page.
