EDC & Skagit Valley College to Host Free Job Skills Program Info Session

The Economic Development Council (EDC), in partnership with Skagit Valley College, will host a free online information session for businesses and organizations interested in Skagit Valley College’s Job Skills Program (JSP) grant.

The Info Session: Job Skills Program will take place Wednesday, March 4, from 10-11am, via Zoom. This session is designed for businesses and organizations looking to train new employees, retrain existing staff, or enhance current skillsets. The Job Skills Program, offered through the Washington State Board for Community and Technical Colleges, provides funding to qualifying organizations to significantly offset the cost of large-scale, customized employee training. Eligible businesses can partner with Skagit Valley College to apply for funding over a one- to two-year grant period. The session is free, but pre-registration is required at sanjuansedc.org/bizlabs. For more information, contact the EDC at 360.378.2906 or info@sanjuansedc.org.
