Key to Business Success is a Skilled Workforce

Let Medina County Workforce Development assist your business in the cost related to the training of your future employees with an "On the Job Training Program" for eligible participants.  
 
As available fully qualified recruits become more difficult to find, numerous returning veterans and those still on unemployment have skill sets which closely match, but do not fully match your employment needs.  Let us help you in defining a training program for these job applicants, and aid in offsetting some of those costs attributed to that training.
