Sharing Requirement Confirmation*

Our federal grant requires employers to share the cost of training. The employer share is based on the size of your workforce at the time of training. Your share can be the wages you pay your employees while they are in training, equipment purchased for training, curriculum development expenses, or other miscellaneous costs that occur during training.

Your employer size is based on the number of employees currently at the local operation where the incumbent worker training will occur. The following is a breakdown of the employer share based on your size:

If you have 50 or fewer employees, the required share is at least 10% of the total cost of training.
If you have 51 to 100 employees, the required share is at least 25% of the total cost of training.
If you have 101 or more employees, the required share is at least 50% of the total cost of training.
