What is TechCred?

TechCred is Ohio's innovative workforce program that reimburses employers for industry-recognized, technology-focused, credentialed training programs and certificates. TechCred helps Ohioans learn new skills and helps employers build a stronger workforce with the skills needed in a technology-infused economy.

 
 

How Does TechCred Work?

  • Employers will need to identify the specific, technology-centric qualifications they need, as well as the number of employee(s) they want to upskill.
  • To qualify for reimbursement of training costs, the employer must partner with a training provider and apply online. Individuals must be Ohio residents with a verifiable Ohio address.
  • The state will reimburse up to $2,000 of training costs per credential upon completion.
  • There is no longer a limit of one reimbursement available per employee in each funding round.
  • Employers are eligible to receive up to $30,000 per funding round.
  • Training must be completed within 12 months of the award date.
