Upskill your employees with Amazon Web Services (AWS) training and find out how your company can be reimbursed up to $30,000 for your employee’s training through Ohio’s TechCred program.
The Ohio TechCred Program opens June 1st to 30th, 2021, and has been updated to be more flexible for employers. You can identify your training plan and which credentials/training will be needed, but you do not need to identify the employees (current and/or prospective employees) until the training is completed and you file for reimbursement.
We are happy to work with you on your training plan for open enrollment or private training courses, your TechCred application, and provide the training certificates to apply for reimbursement. This program is not a first-come, first-served program. The acceptance of your application will be based upon need and a points system developed by the state and you will need to be submitted before June 30th, 2021 for this round. Let’s get started on your application now!
