“The CSTB On the Job Training (OJT) program is great for both employers and eligible job seekers,” says Angela Lyons, CSTB Business Services Lead. “Employers can hire and train eligible job seekers within their workforce and by the end of the OJT program, the company can be reimbursed 50 to 75 percent. This program not only provides reimbursable training funds to the employers, but it also helps retain employees that are vital to helping businesses grow!”
