Creating your Plan for the Work-Based Learning Incentive Program (WBLIP)

Description

In this session you will learn about a grant for businesses to be reimbursed for developing and providing Work-Based Learning through a program called the Work-Based Learning Incentive Program (WBLIP).

You will also learn how to develop your WBL Plan that will be submitted as primary evidence for the Base Incentive reimbursement category in the Employer Incentive checklist. We will also walk through documents and tools you may use for yourself, your trainers, and your participants for accountability and guidance in the WBL experience.

BACKGROUND
In May of 2022 the Colorado State Legislature passed Senate Bill 22-140, creating the WBLI Program. The goal of the $3 million program is to increase and expand the number of work-based learning opportunities available to youth and adults across Colorado by providing monetary incentives to Employers to create new, or enhance existing, work-based learning programs. WBLIP will reimburse employers up to $10,000 for developing and implementing Work-Based Learning activities in your company through May 31, 2024. Expenses related to WBL activities not funded by other grant sources are eligible for reimbursement.

We hope to see you there!
