How does it work?.
•    This agreement is between the community college and the employer
•    The debt is then repaid to the college through a diversion of withholding taxes generated by the wages earned by the new employees. In other words, training of new employees is essentially paid by dollars that would otherwise have been paid to the state for withholding taxes.
•    Jobs are full-time, in a new, existing or expanding business of the employer;
•    Positions that qualify must pay a minimum of $11.10/hour
•    Are new jobs that result in a net increase in employment in this state for the employer
•    Colleges administer the training funds,
