Summary of New and Expanding Industry Program
All training is customized to the company's needs, and is structured by the company and community college. It includes pre-employment assistance, qualified instruction and training, facilities and equipment, and supplies and customized materials. Actual instruction and training can be done through college personnel, through the company by offsetting cost of instructor wages, "Train-the-Trainer" expenses, and company employees that provide start-up training to newly hired North Carolinians.
Other training features include:
100-day probationary period--Employees hired through the Employment Security Commission or JobLink Career Center who are terminated within the first 100 days of employment due to inability to perform the job may be non-chargeable to the employer's unemployment insurance account.
On-the-Job Training funding--Allows for 50% of the workers wages paid during a specified training period to be reimbursed to you. Targeted groups such as economically disadvantaged, dislocated workers, and older workers are eligible.
Occupational Skills Training--Occurs when there is demand for a specific occupation from our region, or when a single company agrees to hire all certified completers of a specialized skill-training program. The Community College will employ the instructor and customize the training to meet your needs. Training can be conducted on-site or, on campus and is geared toward increasing production and improving safety.
Focused Industry Training--The Community College can offer customized, small enrollment classes in skills critical to a company's operations. The training is tailored to the need of the company and requires six students or less.
