Incentives - By Entity: Texas Workforce Solutions
Texas Workforce Solutions
- Workforce Training: The Skills Development Fund was created to finance customized job training for local businesses, in cooperation with Texas public community and technical colleges. The Fund was established by the Legislature in 1995 and is administered by the Texas Workforce Commission. Grants are awarded on a competitive basis to help fund companies who partner with community colleges, such as Temple College – Taylor Center and/or East Williamson County Higher Education Center (EWCHEC), to design custom job training that addresses the specific training needs of the company. Visit http://skills.texasworkforce.org
The average training award is $1,400 per trainee or $500,000 maximum per company workforce training grants; however, the benefit may vary depending on the proposal.
The Workforce Solutions Rural Capital Area office serves our area through an office located at the EWCHEC in downtown Taylor. The Board offers recruiting assistance by screening employees and referring qualified individuals to the company for interviews. Job openings can be customized and posted on the "Work-in-Texas" website, a statewide job bank system. Visit www.workintexas.com
- Employer Recruiting Services Assistance: In addition to the Workforce Training services mentioned above, the Workforce Solutions Rural Capital Area also offers full-service recruiting, testing, screening and other related pre-employment services using resources such as Work In Texas. These services could be valued at approximately 20-30% of the value for each employee's first year salary. Visit www.texasworkforce.org.
