Training Incentives - More for Less
We offer innovative "Grow Your Own Employee" programs to help you reduce labor costs while building the workforce you need to meet business demands. For example, in an On-the-Job Training (OJT) arrangement, we can reimburse up to 50% of the training costs for an employee during a specific period.
In a Work Experience Program (WEP) we can place employees with your company for 3-9 months at no cost to you. In Work Training Experiences (WTE), we select, screen, place, and pay the salary of select workers while they intern for your company. If needed, we can provide job supports such as coaching and counseling to ensure a successful experience. With little or no out-of-pocket costs, minimal paperwork, and no long-term commitments on your part, you get far more for less.
