A variety of state funding assistance programs
exists, and Change Management Consulting (CMC) has a solid track record
of helping its clients acquire financial aid through them.
State funding assistance programs are designed to
help American companies combat foreign competition or to even counter
out-of-state challenges by domestic competitors. Most programs
offer financial assistance to upgrade employee skills and operating
efficiency through training. Some examples of state funding
assistance programs are:
►
California Employment Training Panel (ETP)
ETP is a California State agency that is designed to fund training which
meets the needs of employers for skilled workers, and the need of
workers for good, long-term jobs. The program supports the California
economy, primarily by funding the retraining of incumbent, frontline
workers in companies challenged by out-of-state competition.
►
Illinois Employer Training Investment Program (ETIP)
ETIP supports Illinois workers’ efforts to upgrade their
skills, in order to remain current in new technologies and business
practices. This enables companies to remain competitive, expand into new
markets and introduce more efficient technologies into their operations.
ETIP grants may reimburse Illinois companies for up to 50 percent of the
cost of training their employees.
►
New York State Industrial Effectiveness Program (IEP)
IEP is a grant available to small and medium-sized manufacturing firms
and industry groups within New York state. This grant provides up to
$50,000 for companies to obtain a wide variety of management consulting
training support. Many organizations have accessed this funding for Lean
Manufacturing and ISO quality systems training.
►
