Pipeline Dual Training Grant Applications Due April 12

Posted on April 7, 2022 by Anna Mowry

The Pipeline Dual Training Grant Applications will be accepted through April 12 for up to $150,000 in grants to help employers build dual-training programs. The Pipeline Dual Training Grant, managed by the Minnesota Office of Higher Education, is available for employers in four select industries—including health care services—interested in leveraging Dual-Training Pipeline's model of pairing on-the-job training with related instruction to generate a comprehensive platform for learning.

Applicants can train workers for one of more than 75 eligible occupations of the Minnesota Dual-Training Pipeline, including Certified Nursing Assistants, LPNs, RNs, or Senior Living Culinary Managers.

Employers can apply for up to $150,000 (limited to $6,000 per employee/trainee) to cover the cost of that employee's tuition, books, fees and any required tools or equipment to complete the coursework. Read more about the grant and apply at the Office of Higher Education.
