Trained workers. Several hundred individuals receive training each year to prepare them for occupations in their community. Most of this training takes place at Idaho's public and private training institutions.

On-the-job-training. Businesses can receive a reimbursement of up to 50% of a trainee's wages when they agree to hire and train an eligible worker. Eligible workers are often new entrants to the labor force or those seeking new skills in order to become re-employed after a layoff.

Customized training. Training can be designed to meet the special needs of a business or group of businesses that agree to hire or retain a worker upon successful completion of training and pay at least 50% of the cost of training.

Layoff assistance. Retraining opportunities and job placement assistance, tailored to the needs of the business and the laid-off employees are available.

Other assistance. Short-term assistance with transportation or child care, tools, equipment, uniforms, and other benefits may be available to assist eligible employees when necessary.
