On the Job Training

On-the-Job Training (OJT) program provides a unique opportunity for individuals who already possess some job-related skills and knowledge to “learn as they earn”. By participating, employers can benefit by being reimbursed up to 50% of a worker’s wages during the training period, while having the services of a full-time employee.

• Employers are reimbursed up to 50% of the wage rate of the individual for the costs associated with providing the training.
• OJT provides knowledge or skills essential to the full and adequate performance of the job.
• OJT focuses on jobs involving the introduction of new technologies, production or service procedures; upgrading to new jobs that require additional skills or workplace literacy; among other purposes.
• The employer can be in the public, private non-profit or private sector.
• OJT is limited in duration based upon the target occupation for which the participant is being trained, the participant’s prior work experience and existing skills.
