SUNY Workforce Development Grant

Any company with two or more employees may apply for a SUNY Workforce Development Grant. The grant requires at least a 10% cash match. The grant is written and administered by SUNY Ulster on behalf of the applicant company. The once-a-year application deadline is usually in June but is somewhat dependent on the state budget.

Companies need to provide a letter of support on company letterhead describing their company and the need for training. The grants are competitive. The maximum application amount is $50,000.

Because the competition for funding is strong, it is recommended that companies consider a higher matching amount than the 10% minimum (unless the company is part of a consortium). The applicant company is also required to write a letter at the end of the grant describing the outcomes. Groups of companies can apply as a consortium and share training.
