Land of Lincoln Workforce Alliance and its partners including Illinois workNet work together to provide employee-based training programs built to build up Illinois businesses. 

An apprenticeship is a system in which workers train on-the-job while learning a particular skill or set of skills.

The purpose of the Business Grants for Employee Training Program is to provide resources for employers to train currently employed workers in an effort to keep businesses and workers competitive.

Employers who find job seekers that may not have all of the experience or skill necessary to perform the job duties, but who could become job ready with additional training, may be able to receive financial assistance for training.
