This Thursday: Employer Kick-Off | Work-Based Learning Incentive Program

In May of 2022, the Colorado State Legislature passed Senate Bill 22-140, creating the WBLI Program. The goal of the $3 million program is to increase and expand the number of work-based learning opportunities available to youth and adults across Colorado by providing monetary incentives to Employers to create new, or enhance existing, work-based learning programs. WBLIP will reimburse employers up to $10,000 for developing and implementing Work-Based Learning activities in your company through May 31, 2024. Expenses related to WBL activities not funded by other grant sources are eligible for reimbursement.
