There are currently no IWT funds available for Greenville, Spartanburg, Union or Cherokee Counties.
The IWT program helps local employers enhance productivity, quality, and competitiveness by providing their employees with critical training opportunities. These grants can support training related to new skill requirements, updated technologies, new certifications, or other improvements that strengthen business operations and workforce capabilities.
Grant awards are competitive and based on demonstrated need. Eligibility is limited to businesses located within Greenville, Spartanburg, Cherokee, and Union counties.
To qualify, businesses must:
Have at least one full-time employee;
Be current on all federal and state tax obligations; and
Submit a complete grant application.
Business receiving services through ReadySC™. training entities and city, county, and state governments are not eligible for IWT funding. IWT funds are not available to a business that has relocated, if that relocation resulted in the loss of jobs at the original location, until the company has operated at the new location for 120 days.
