Canada-Ontario Job Grant


Employment Services Elgin is here to help you apply for a Canada-Ontario Job Grant to train your workers and help connect you to workers. The Canada-Ontario Job Grant gives business funding to help train workers. No one knows better than you what skills your team needs to succeed. So, you choose the workers and the training.
How much funding can I get?
The Grant will fund, on average, five-sixths of a worker's eligible training costs, to a maximum of $10,000. Eligible training costs include tuition and fees, textbooks and materials. You can contribute the remaining costs, and employ the worker you train.
Is my business eligible?
Individual businesses and buisiness organizations can apply. Broader public sector organizations of Canada-Ontario Job Grant service providers aren't eligible. Also, you can't apply if you're already receiving government funding to train the same worker.
Who provides the training?
You can select any appropriate training offered by eligible third-party trainers.
What are the requirements? Your business must:
Contribute at least one-third of training costs
Employ the worker you plan to train
Be licensed to operate in Ontario
Have insurance and comply with labour and human rights legislation


Who can get training? Workers must:
Have an employer to sponsor them
Be a resident of Ontario
Be a Canadian citizen, permanent resident, or protected person
Not be already taking full-time education or training


Why should I train my workers?
Training can improve business performance. profit, and staff morale. The Canadian Apprenticeship Forum tells us that, on average, a $1 investment in training returns a benefit to the employer of $1.38. If you want to give your business the benefits of workplace training, this grant is for you!
