Financial Incentives

Creative Workforce Solutions (CWS) will help identify the best and most cost-efficient hiring solutions for your business. A training fund has been established in Vermont to increase the use of alternative placement strategies as a tool to reduce any perception of risk on the part of employers. These funds can be used for arrangements such as work trials, internships, on-the-job training, and other options that may be of interest to employers. CWS staff can work with you to determine which of our programs you may qualify for.
