Indiana's NextLevel Jobs: Employer Training Grant 4.0 resumed as of July 1, 2020.
Included via the CARES Act funding that Indiana received, the “4.0” phase of this work will allow for an increased maximum training reimbursement amount of $100,000 (an increase from $50,000) until December 15, 2020. On January 1, 2021 the Employer Training Grant 4.0 will resume $50,000 maximum reimbursement per employer.
To better diversify the impact of training Hoosiers, at least $5 million will be available to support minority-, women- and veteran-owned businesses as DWD embarks on its Rapid Recovery for a Better Future.
