Posted on by

When: Monday, June 13th, 1.00 pm
Where: Virtual

Who: Marisa Chrysochoou, TAB Program Director and William “Bill” Lariviere, EPA Region 1, Brownfields Project Officer

This webinar will provide an overview of the EPA Brownfields Job Training Program for potential partners in EPA Region 1 interested in submitting a proposal for the  FY23 solicitation with a deadline of August 2nd, 2022. EPA’s Brownfields Job Training Grant Program is refocusing the competition on training activities that support assessment, cleanup, and preparation of brownfield sites for reuse. As part of that change, the former Environmental Workforce Development and Job Training Program will now be called the Brownfields Job Training Program.

Join our webinar on Monday June 13th to find out about how you can prepare a competitive proposal for a JT grant and help build the workforce in your community. Topics covered will include:

  • Overview of brownfield JT grants provisions in the solicitation
  • Building effective partnerships
  • Resources to build and execute a successful JT program
  • Case studies of successful grantees
