Small Business Employee Training
If you have 50 or less employees, then the IWTP Small Business Employee Training Program (SBET) is just right for you! This program is designed
to benefit small Louisiana businesses by developing and upgrading their skills through standardized training. Through the SBET grant, training
is reimbursable for up to $3,000 per employee per fiscal year (July 1 –June 30). Funding comes from the Unemployment Insurance taxes paid by
the employer. To qualify, a business must be Louisiana-based, have been in business three or more years, contribute and be compliant with state
UI tax laws and have 50 or less employees.
LANTEC has more applications approved for the SBET program than any other training provider in the state of Louisiana!
