MassMEP team input into the submission, administration and implementation of training grants has made it much more streamlined than other grant processes we’ve gone through, where you’re primarily on your own. MassMEP also helped us identify training that would be appropriate and to meet with the trainers to determine if it’s a good fit. MassMEP provides regular check ins to see if we are happy with the training and to see if it’s working. If we’d been left on our own, I’m not sure that we would have pursued the detailed and time-consuming review and restructure that we now realize is required, and that would have been to our detriment.
