WETO is looking to support education and training programs that offer (a) apprenticeship readiness programs, (b) registered apprenticeship programs, or (c) maritime/mariner programs, with particular attention to programs that support underserved communities. Recipients of this funding can include local or state governments, Tribes, workforce boards, institutions of higher education (especially Minority Serving Institutions), organized labor, industry, or other education and training providers that further education and training programs as they relate to the deployment of offshore wind in the United States. Successful applicants will have hiring commitments from employer partners. These awards will build upon existing training infrastructure and consider regional variability.

Purpose: The Office Hours session will provide an opportunity for participants to ask questions about the opportunity directly to DOE and ConnectWerx. ConnectWerx recommends starting an application and utilizing the Office Hours for specific clarifications on the application or submissions processes.
