The Defense & Manufacturing Training Fund is putting $7.2 million behind one goal: helping Maine manufacturers train, upskill, and build the skilled workforce they need for today and tomorrow.

Eligible employers in defense shipbuilding, the defense supply chain, and advanced manufacturing can receive reimbursement of up to $8,000 per employee for qualifying training.

That can mean:

🔹 Launching or expanding an apprenticeship program

🔹 Upskilling your current workforce

🔹 Training new hires for skilled positions

🔹 Building skills in welding, machining, quality control, automation, engineering, and more

🔹 Helping employees earn industry-recognized credentials

If you're a Maine manufacturer struggling to find or develop skilled workers, funding is already set aside to help. Invest in your workforce now.
