Advancements in technology are rapidly changing the 21st century workplace and all over Ohio, there are employers who can’t find people with the skills needed to fill their good-paying jobs.
To help ease this transition for businesses and workers, last year the DeWine-Husted Administration launched TechCred, a program that will fund 10,000 in-demand technology credentials per year.
Through TechCred, businesses can identify the specific qualifications they need and employees they want to upskill toward a more advanced position. In partnership with a training provider, the employer can apply online at TechCred.Ohio.Gov. The state will reimburse up to $2,000 of training upon completion of a credential.
The upcoming application period will open on March 2nd and run through March 31st.
With questions, please reach out directly to Workforce@OWT.Ohio.Gov.
