The grant covers up to two-thirds of the cost of tuition for each employee to a maximum of $50,000 per employer. The employer then must contribute the remaining amount.
The grant covers any training completed between Nov. 1, 2020 and March 31, 2021. Applications for the grant funding are accepted until Jan. 31, 2021.
Since recent events within the province surrounding public gathering restrictions, KAP representatives hope to see some online options for this training, said Campbell.
“We're looking forward to having more discussion on a possible online component with the classroom teaching,” Campbell told Farms.com.
