All About Accessibility: Ohio TechCred Builds Tech Talent

 

Ohio TechCred helps Ohioans learn new skills and helps employers build a stronger workforce with the skills needed in a technology-infused economy. 

 

The TechCred program funds thousands of technology-focused, industry-recognized credentials to prepare current and future employees for the technology jobs Ohio employers need. Approved credentials take a year or less to complete, and many can be done online. 

 

Top Tech Talent 

 

Hiring tech talent can be expensive. TechCred helps employers retool their existing dedicated workforce to become technology professionals. 

 

Financial Reimbursement 

 

Businesses are eligible for $30,000 every application period. Those employers who submit successful applications will be reimbursed up to $2,000 per credential when current or prospective employees complete technology-focused credentials.
