In an effort to reduce timelines, the Workforce Development Training fund team has been working toward giving its customers access to an online application form.
The online application form will assist in shortening the 45-day application rule to 30 days, ultimately giving customers more flexibility in their training choices.
Businesses will need to register as a user on the system prior to submitting its first application. Review of the business registrations will occur on a daily basis.
The online application boasts a secure, online messaging center to communicate with its customers.
Applications must request funding for only one training event per application, but the training event may include multiple training dates.
There is no limit to the number of applications a business may submit.
Applications will only be accepted up to 110 days before the scheduled training date; no less than 30 days before the scheduled training date. (To assist with the calculation, please use the date calculator below.)
The documents listed below must be forwarded prior to application approval to:
Leesha McFarland
