Did you know Massachusetts treats English training as a workforce priority?

If your team includes employees who are still building their English, the state's Workforce Training Fund can help cover the cost of classes. It comes with special rules that make ESOL easier to fund:

✅ No dollar-for-dollar match required for ESOL modules in the General Program
✅ ESOL can be funded in back-to-back grants, so learning doesn't stop after one course
✅ General Program grants now go up to $200,000

Better English means safer shifts, stronger teams, and more room for your people to grow. Here's how it works and how to apply 👇
