Final eligibility is set by the Utah Department of Workforce Services. Funds are limited and awarded on a rolling basis.
The questions we get asked the most.
Q1
Is this 40% off?
No. You initially pay full price. The state reimburses up to 40% after training is complete.
Q2
Is reimbursement guaranteed?
No. It depends on state approval and available funds. Our track record with this program is strong, but funds are limited.
Q3
How long does approval take?
Most applications process in a few days. Apply before your planned training start date.
Q4
What if our application is denied?
You still get the full training. You just do not receive the reimbursement.
Q5
How much funding is available?
Funds are limited each fiscal year and awarded on a rolling basis. Applying early improves your odds.

Who gets the money?
The state reimburses your company directly.
