Good News - The Hiring Incentive Training Grant Program (HITG) Program has been reactivated
through June 30th 2010!
HITG, part of the state-funded Workforce Training Fund, is open to all employers that pay into the fund and assists an employer to cover the cost of
training when hiring a Massachusetts resident who, prior to being hired, had
been unemployed for 1 year or longer.
Awards are made in the amount of a flat fee grant of $2,000 per individual up to a maximum annual total of $20,000 per employer.
Employers can use an external training provider of their choice or they may use qualified employees of the company to conduct internal training of new hires.
Funding is limited and grants will be awarded on a first come-first served basis.
In order to access HITG funds, employers must submit an online application within 30 days following the
individual’s date of hire.
The application may be accessed through the following link (copy and paste in your browser):

For all HITG applications submitted through June 30, 2010, the planned training must be completed no later than December 31, 2010.
