What does WDTF mean in FUNDS

The Workforce Development Training Fund (WDTF) is a program that provides funding support to help employers train and develop their current and new employees. It helps employers achieve their long-term business goals by providing employee training, career planning, and leadership development.

WDTF provides support to both employers for training and developing their current or potential employees, as well as individuals seeking job-related educational opportunities and career development services.

The funds provided by the WDTF are typically used for on-the-job training programs, apprenticeship programs, internships, vouchers for continuing education opportunities such as college courses or conferences related to the employee's job field or career development activities.

Applications for funding can be made through participating public employment service offices in your area. Each office has its own set of guidelines for applying for funding from the WDTF. However, all applications must include documentation relating to the project being funded such as budgets, timetables, project descriptions etc.
