Training Programs
The type of training which can be provided
through funding under the various federal and state work force
training programs include the following:
Customized training programs are
designed to provide specific technical and occupational skills
training so individuals may acquire the necessary competencies
to perform the duties and responsibilities that are required for
employment.
Classroom training can be provided
for both occupational skill development and basic or remedial
skills. Normally, this training takes place within an
established course curriculum offered through a secondary or
postsecondary training institution. Tuition costs, books, fees,
and supplies can be paid for through one of the programs
administered by Career Development Workforce Center.
On-the-job training is conducted at
the employer's place of business and is designed to enable an
employee to learn the necessary job skills in order to qualify
for a particular occupation. On-The-Job Training Programs can be
written for a maximum of six months in duration. Employers
receive up to a 50 percent reimbursement of the employee's
hourly wage for the extraordinary costs they incur in providing
the training. |
