DCED offers grants to create apprenticeships

The Department of Community and Economic Development is accepting grant applications from sponsors of registered apprenticeships.

The Pre-Apprentice and Apprenticeship Grant Program helps cover expenses for technical or academic instruction that complements on-the-job training in registered apprenticeship programs.

Sponsors may request up to $3,000 per apprentice annually for a maximum of three years.
