On-The-Job Training for Current Employees
An employer can be reimbursed for 1/2 of a current employee's wage to train him/her if the training relates to the introduction of new technologies, the introduction to a new production or service procedure, an upgrade to a new job that requires additional skills, and workplace literacy when the employee is not currently earning a self-sufficient wage.
Customized Training
The purpose of Customized Training is to provide training specific to an employer's need for potential or current employees. It is normally provided in a classroom setting and designed specifically to meet the employer or group of employers specific needs. The employer must commit to hire the potential employee or retain the current employee after successful completion of the training; and the employer must pay a minimum of 50% of the cost of the training.
