In plain English

This workforce development funding is open to businesses, nonprofits, and public agencies that form partnerships to build career pathway programs in the Quantum or Fusion technology sectors, covering everything from K-12 career exploration through community college credentialing and job placement. The Workforce Development Board plans to fund two or more partnerships, including both participant-serving and planning/development projects, but the listing does not specify a funding amount. Because the model requires multi-partner collaboration rather than a single applicant, solo organizations without partners may not fit the intended structure.

About this grant

The CWDB seeks to fund two or more partnerships that will develop a scalable, replicable career pathway program focused on the Quantum or Fusion sectors. Funded projects will integrate multiple on- and off-ramps for participants from the K-12 system through the community college and four-year university systems. The intent of Accelerator 14 is to support the development of programs that offer: -Establish industry-recognized credentials that will prepare jobseekers for quality jobs in the Quantum or Fusion sectors; particularly short-term credentials that can be attained in approximately eight to thirteen weeks.-Train and place participants into jobs in Quantum, Fusion, and/or adjacent occupations within the Quantum or Fusion supply chains that do not require a four-year degree.-Provide career education, exploration, and introductory technical education at the High School and Community College levels.-Offer guidance and support to students seeking to enter a four-year degree program focused on Quantum, Fusion, or a related field.-Conduct outreach, recruitment, and supportive services for jobseekers facing barriers to employment. The CWDB will consider applications for both participant serving (Innovation Impact), and non-participant serving projects (Planning and Development).
