NewPath Consulting has created a new training course called "Cloud Computing Excellence". It is a 5-day training course for Ontario employers to help transform and modernize the sales, operations and marketing – both from a business and technology perspective. Ontario for-profit and not-for profit organizations are eligible to get reimbursed for skills training through a new program called Canada Ontario Jobs Program (COJG). In Toronto, we work with the Centre for Education & Training.
The COJG provides direct financial support for employers – small, medium and large businesses to deliver short –term training to existing and new employees. This grant program allows employers to choose both the training that meets their workforce development needs and the individuals to be trained.
COJG is a shared investment between employers and the government. An unlimited amount of Ontario-based employees may be trained to bridge skills gap and encourage employment and retention of employees.
COJG Quick Facts:
- The Government provides up to $10,000 per person for training costs.
- Employers with 50 or fewer employees are required to contribute a minimum of 1/3 towards the training costs of each individual participating in training funded through COJG. A minimum of one-half of their one-third must be in cash and applied towards eligible training costs.
- Training must be less than 1 year, and be delivered by an eligible, third party trainer.
- Employers are required to complete an application and submit it on-line in order for funding to be considered.
