I have been approved for an Express Program grant, what are the next steps? Do you setup training, or does my business setup training?

Congratulations on the recent approval of your Express Program grant! Our program funds training for employers via a reimbursement model. While we maintain a directory of pre-approved courses that can be submitted for reimbursement once completed, Commonwealth Corporation does not offer the training listed in the directory ourselves, nor do we coordinate training (e.g., sign up, start and end dates, etc.) on behalf of the providers listed in our directory. 

Commonwealth Corporation makes no endorsement regarding the quality of the training providers/courses listed in the directory. Businesses must conduct their own research and are responsible for confirming course availability and pricing with their selected training providers prior to submitting an application.

Once you have an approved and signed agreement on file with us, you are welcome to begin training on or after the selected agreement start date. Note: Please do not start before your selected agreement start date, or your training will not be eligible for reimbursement. 

Once training that was approved as part of your Express Program Agreement is completed and paid for, you may submit for reimbursement using the instructions sent along with your agreement.
