The Community College of Baltimore County will get a $4.9 million grant to offer nursing and other health-care training to unemployed or disadvantaged workers, part of a $225 million federal stimulus package announced Friday. The U.S. Department of Labor directed the grants to training programs at community colleges, community-based organizations, state workforce agencies and other public entities. The package is part of nearly $750 million in competitive grant funding through the Labor Department.
