 “If you train them they may leave but if you don’t train them they might stay.”

Hiring?  We should talk…

 

Customized Training: Customized training is occupational training that is designed to meet the special requirements of an employer or group of employers.  It is conducted with a commitment by an employer(s) to employ an individual upon successful completion of the training, and for which the employer(s) pay for not less than 50% of the cost of training.

Destination Careers Work Experience: Administered locally, work experience places a young person in a business with assigned work duties.  CareerSource Southwest Florida pays the participant $9 an hour for up to 320 hours and also covers their worker’s compensation coverage.

Incumbent Worker Training Program : Incumbent Worker Training (IWT) is administered through a state application from CareerSource Florida (Florida Flex) and provides grant funding training for current employees of existing for-profit businesses.  IWT grants are designed to provide customized training to employees which would lead to advancement opportunities or training on new equipment or in order for an employee to divert a layoff or job loss.

On-The-Job Training Program:  Administered locally, On-The-Job-Training (OJT) is a training reimbursement program designed for new hires.  Depending on the length and depth of the training necessary to bring a new employee up to full capability, each OJT grant may differ in length and level of reimbursement and is coordinated through your local CareerSource center.

Quick Response Training Program : The Quick Response Training (QRT) an employer-driven program administered through a state application (Florida Flex) and is in partnership with a local educational or training institution. QRT is designed to retain and attract businesses and create new high wage jobs. This program is structured to be flexible and to “respond quickly” to businesses’ training needs.
