About SCALE

The Workforce Skills Cabinet and Commonwealth Corporation have launched the Scaling Capacity and Leveraging Employers (SCALE) Planning Grant. These funds are aligning public and private resources across the system to scale effective education-to-employment pathways that better position residents who want to be hired into jobs that businesses need filled.

The SCALE Planning Grant provides an opportunity to operationalize partnerships that will apply for larger implementation grants to solve bigger problems. This is done by de-risking the time required by businesses and stakeholder partners to determine and apply for implementation funding. SCALE encourages and requires direct engagement from the business community to solve their training, education, and talent needs at a high volume.

$10,000-30,000 is available for a one-to-three-month planning grant. Final deliverable is an application to ARPA funded workforce program, e.g., CTI, WCTF, RENEW grant.

Benefits of a SCALE grant include:

• A direct opportunity to engage the business community to solve their training, education, and talent needs at a high volume

• De-risking the time and effort required by businesses and stakeholder partners to determine and apply for funding

• Allowing groups to operationalize partnerships prior to applying for larger grants to solve bigger problems

• Providing flexible funding for planning and designing scalable activities

About RENEW

The Workforce Skills Cabinet and Commonwealth Corporation have launched RENEW to develop programs that will train workers to address employers’ hiring needs and help companies meet their diversity hiring goals.

该计划旨在弥合雇主与当地培训提供者之间的差距，目标是建立可持续的人才发展渠道。在这些合作伙伴关系中，雇主将为课程设计提供投入，指定他们需要帮助招聘的工人类型，并在完成培训和工作安置后支付费用。

Committed employers agree to pay back 50% of training costs for each hired person.

除了计划资金外，合作伙伴还将获得 MassHire 职业中心和地区劳动力委员会的技术援助和招聘支持。
