A $2.7 million federal grant will help manufacturing businesses across Washington pay for worker training at nearly no cost, according to a recent press release from the Workforce Training Board. The grant, according to the board’s press release, is an opportunity for local workers at participating businesses to receive fully paid tuition for a variety of targeted training options, including supply chain management and freight forwarding. Island County will be among 31 rural Washington counties included in the boost in training for those who work at small and mid-sized manufacturers, paid for by the U.S. Department of Labor. Funded online training is part of a larger grant called “Make it in Washington.”
