Workforce 20/20
Workforce 20/20 assists North Dakota employers in training and upgrading workers' skills.

This funding assistance is available to businesses to offset training costs for current workers and new employees. Expanding businesses or those new to the state are eligible. Other businesses are eligible when they are introducing new industry technologies or introducing new industry production methods.
