Description: As part of Governor Hochul’s $350 million investment in workforce development in the enacted FY2023 budget, the Office of Strategic Workforce Development (OSWD) was created within ESD to administer a $150 million workforce development grant program to support employer-driven, high-skilled workforce training programs. Through OSWD, ESD will help create new economic opportunities for unemployed, underemployed and underrepresented workers, while simultaneously meeting the labor needs of the state’s highest-growth industry sectors.

Join us on Thursday, August 31 from 11:00 am – 12:00 pm to learn more about these funding opportunities and how they can be used to develop and grow workforce development programs in your region.
