The Baker-Polito Administration announced today that more than $10 million in Workforce Training Fund Program (WTFP) grants have been awarded to train 5,698 employees from 95 Massachusetts employers. These grants are expected to result in the creation of 1,540 additional jobs by 2023.
WTFP is a program of the Executive Office of Labor and Workforce Development (EOLWD) and is administered by Commonwealth Corporation, a quasi-public state agency that fosters partnerships between industry, education, and workforce organizations. Since the beginning of the Baker-Polito Administration, WTFP has awarded more than $146 million to train more than 113,000 workers from over 4,200 Massachusetts businesses.
“When employers across the Commonwealth invest in the continued development of their workforce, employees build skills that strengthen their acumen, our business community and the greater economy,” dijo el gobernador Charlie Baker. “Through programs like WTFP, this Administration continues to show its commitment to workforce development as a way to benefit both employees and employers.”
Funded by Massachusetts employers via contributions made to unemployment insurance, the Workforce Training Fund helps companies improve productivity and competitiveness by providing resources to invest in the Massachusetts workforce. In partnership with EOLWD, Commonwealth Corporation reviews and awards training grants of up to $250,000 to Massachusetts businesses and consortia of businesses to fund training for current and newly hired employees.
“These WTFP grants will help encourage job growth and employee retention by providing professional skill building opportunities for workers,” dijo la vicegobernadora Karyn Polito. “I applaud the dedication of these employers in their efforts to provide positive learning opportunities for their employees.”
“This is a significant round of grant awards that will positively impact career pathways for more than 5,500 workers across the Commonwealth,” dijo la Secretaria de Trabajo y Desarrollo Laboral, Rosalin Acosta. “Nuestra estrategia de fuerza laboral regional está creciendo rápidamente a medida que continuamos colaborando con socios comerciales, de capacitación y comunitarios. Hay oportunidades de subvenciones adicionales disponibles ahora y animo a otros a participar”.
