NJBIA Basic Skills Training Program
Training for Your NJ Employees
At No Charge to Your Company

Get basic-skills training for your employees at no charge to your company through NJBIA’s partnership with the NJ Community College Consortium and the NJ Department of Labor.  Your employees can be trained at one of the State’s 63 community-college locations or possibly at your own facility.  Training is available in:

• Computer applications (Windows, Outlook, Excel, Word)
• Mathematics and measurement
• Communications (verbal, written and customer relations)
• English as a second language

This program was designed to make it easy for your company to participate. You are not required to provide a minimum number of employees for training, pay for class tuition, fill out complicated paperwork, or disclose financial statements.  Now in its fourth year (2010-2011), this program has already benefited more than 12,500 employees with 1,100 companies. 
 
These classes will be provided at no charge to your company. However, your employees must be "on the clock" (paid by you at their usual hourly rate) while in training.
