This event is specifically for the following industries: advanced manufacturing, agriculture, health care, and information technology. The MN Department of Labor and Office of Higher Education are coming to Fergus Falls to teach you about the Pipeline Dual-Training Program and grant opportunity which will open for applications in March of 2020.

Pairing on the job training with related instruction is crucial to develop today's workforce, and employers in the four targeted industries may apply for grants (up to $6,000 per person) to reimburse for expenses related to attaining an industry-recognized degree, certificate or credential for their employees. This session will review the program, and provide an overview of the grant opportunity.
