Incentives & Training Programs

Incentives and Training Programs Offered by The Office of Grants Operations

Customized Training Grants
ANNOUNCEMENT
Due to unprecedented demand and the volume of applications funded to date, effective immediately NJLWD is suspending all new funding for the Customized Training Program until additional funding becomes available. In accordance with the Competitive Notice of Grant Opportunity (NGO) for Customized Training Grants, "All awards are made subject to the availability of funds."

Literacy Training Grant applications will continue to be accepted until funds allocated for this state fiscal year have been expended.

NJLWD looks forward to assisting our business partners in the near future and hopes that this will not deter you from training your employees. Please check the department's website for updates on future funding availability. If you have any questions, please contact your assigned Business Representative or you may call the OGO helpdesk at (609) 633-6799. More
