Canada-Ontario Job Grant (Federal Funding): Who Qualifies and What You Get
Learn how employers can receive funding to cover training costs for new or existing employees through this federal support program.
This program helps employers cover the costs of training for their staff. It is designed to help businesses build stronger skills within their existing or new workforce.
Who it's for
This grant is for employers who want to provide training to their employees, whether they are current staff members or new hires.
What you get
You can receive a reimbursement to help pay for training expenses. The funding can cover up to $10,000 for each person being trained.
What it costs you
While the government provides funding, it is not a completely free service. The employer is required to pay for at least one-third of the total training costs.
The catch to know
You cannot apply for this after the training is already underway. Your application must be officially approved before any training starts.

- Determine your portion of the cost and the portion the grant will cover.
- Submit your application through the official government channels.
- Wait for official approval before enrolling your staff in the training.
