Funding available for noncredit professional dvelopment

The Delaware Department of Labor’s Elevate Delaware program helps fund professional development and training opportunities for individuals and employers. If you meet program eligibility requirements, you could complete a UD professional development noncredit program at no cost to you!

With $1.5 million allocated to Elevate Delaware, the program is available to individuals who work in Delaware for organizations with fewer than 51 employees. “The Elevate Delaware program provides an excellent opportunity for individuals to obtain significant funding to help meet their professional development goals, as well as for employers to obtain support for training and development for their staff and team members,” said Vic Wang, director of UD PCS noncredit professional programs.

Providing up to $10,000 to eligible individuals enrolling in approved noncredit professional development programs, the program enables Delaware workers to earn valuable credentials from the University of Delaware's Division of Professional and Continuing Studies (UD PCS). Funding may also be available to help Delaware organizations build and facilitate customized UD professional development courses for their employees or members.
