MID-MICHIGAN (WNEM) – Applications for the Going PRO Talent Fund are now open through the Michigan Department of Labor and Economic Opportunity (LEO). $50 million in funding is available for the first cycle.

“The Going PRO Talent Fund gives workers the opportunity to learn new skills and earn certifications that can truly transform their careers. “At the same time, he helps companies build the skilled teams they need to grow and compete in today’s rapidly changing economy,” said Susan Corbin, Director of LEO.
