Customized Training
Summary
If a prospective employee needs customized training, before they are hired, then the Customized Training program can help "get them up to speed" without breaking your budget. Reimbursable expenses for training include instructor's and trainer's salaries, tuition, curriculum development, textbooks, manuals, and other supplies. Before accepting a participant into a Customized Training Program, SFW must deem the training appropriate for the individual and confirm the availability of funds. Lastly, unless applying via the Employed Worker Training Program, the Customized Training Program requires you to hire the employee after he/she completes their training.
