A critical foundation to economic success is the availability of a skilled workforce. To grow an economy, you need to continually develop your people infrastructure.
This section provides employers with an easy to use roadmap that links to education, apprenticeships, and tax credits that focus on workforce development.
Continuing Education Opportunities
Continuing education delivers learning opportunities to help achieve professional and personal goals. It helps to build skills to accelerate performance and improve productivity.
Skilled Trades
Skill building is a key foundation to continued corporate sustainability. About 90 percent of apprenticeship training is provided in the workplace by employers or sponsors who provide training to standards of skill and safety set by industry. The remainder involves classroom instruction on theory, which is usually given at a local community college or provided by another approved training organization.
Tax Credits
Business tax credits for training, job creation, and hiring post-secondary students.
