MN Job Training Incentive Grant

ABOUT THE GRANT
Minnesota's main training grant option, the Partnership program, focuses on providing training for both new and existing employees of participating businesses throughout the state.
Minnesota participating businesses must partner with an accredited Minnesota educational institution. Grants of up to $400,000 are awarded to the educational institution to develop and deliver custom training specific to business needs. A cash or in-kind contribution from the participating business must match the grant funds on at least a one-to-one basis.
Funds may be used for training-related costs such as curriculum development, instruction, training materials and supplies, training equipment, and instructor travel. Requests for wage subsidies and tuition reimbursement are not eligible. However, wages paid to employees during training may be counted towards the required matching contribution.

North Miami EDD
The Economic Development Small Business Grant provides North Miami small businesses with reimbursement of up to $7,500 to fund expenses that help them grow and operate more effectively. Administered by the City of North Miami's Economic Development Department and funded through the federal Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) program, the grant is open to both for-profit and nonprofit businesses with a physical commercial location within the city. Funds may be applied to a range of approved uses, including equipment and tools, training and certifications, supplies and inventory, marketing and branding, energy-efficient upgrades, commercial liability insurance, and professional services such as CPAs and attorneys. The program operates as a reimbursement: businesses must spend a minimum of 20% of the approved award upfront, and reimbursement is issued in a single payment once eligible receipts have been verified by the department.
