What is a consortium grant?
A consortium grant provides small to medium size companies an approach to continuous improvement training and manufacturing skills development with minimal cost, time and administrative responsibilities.
Each year the Commonwealth of Massachusetts awards millions of dollars in grant money to Massachusetts businesses under the Workforce Training Fund Program (WTFP). Why not be one of the next companies?
