Grant Overview

Priority Outcomes for Ohio's Workforce Development Grants

The Banking Institution's Grants to Support the Skills Required of Tomorrow's Workforce program in Ohio prioritizes outcomes that address the state's unique workforce challenges. Ohio's economy is diverse, with major industries including manufacturing, healthcare, and technology. To remain competitive, Ohio needs to develop a workforce with skills in emerging areas such as data analytics, cybersecurity, and advanced manufacturing.

Targeting Key Sectors

The Ohio Development Services Agency, in partnership with the Ohio Department of Job and Family Services, has identified key sectors for workforce development, including advanced manufacturing, technology, and healthcare. Grants funded by the Banking Institution will be evaluated on their ability to support these priority sectors. Proposals that demonstrate a clear understanding of the skills required by these industries and provide training or education programs to address those needs will be given priority.

Ohio's Appalachian region, which includes counties such as Athens and Meigs, faces distinct workforce challenges due to its rural nature and history of economic decline. Grants that target workforce development in these areas will be evaluated on their potential to address the unique barriers faced by Appalachian Ohioans, such as limited access to education and job opportunities.

Measuring Success

The Banking Institution will measure the success of its grants through a variety of metrics, including the number of individuals trained, the number of job placements, and the overall impact on the state's economy. In particular, the institution is interested in supporting programs that lead to certifications or credentials in high-demand fields, such as those identified by the Ohio Means Jobs certification program. By focusing on these priority outcomes, the Banking Institution aims to support the development of a workforce that is equipped to drive economic growth and competitiveness in Ohio.

The state's major cities, such as Columbus and Cleveland, are hubs for business and industry, and grants that support workforce development in these areas will be considered. For instance, initiatives that provide training in areas like data analytics and software development will be evaluated on their potential to meet the needs of Ohio's growing tech industry. Moreover, the institution is open to supporting innovative approaches to workforce development, such as apprenticeships and on-the-job training programs.

In applying for these grants, Ohio-based organizations should be aware of the state's existing workforce development infrastructure, including the network of Ohio Means Jobs centers and the state's workforce development boards. By building on these existing resources, grantees can maximize their impact and ensure that their programs are aligned with the state's overall workforce development goals.

To be competitive, applicants should demonstrate a clear understanding of the Ohio job market and the skills required by the state's major industries. They should also be prepared to provide data on the outcomes of their programs, including job placement rates and earnings gains for participants. By prioritizing outcomes that align with the state's workforce development goals, the Banking Institution aims to support the growth of a strong and competitive workforce in Ohio.
