About Workforce Development Grants for Community College
Community colleges build workforce pipelines through skilled trade training, STEM certificate programs, and sector-specific workforce partnerships that connect students directly to employer demand. 6,522 active grants support these efforts, with the U.S. National Science Foundation leading funding alongside the Employment and Training Administration. These grants equip institutions to develop curricula, purchase equipment, and deliver hands-on training that fills regional labor gaps.
Awards typically range from $189,000 to $1.1 million, with 88% awarded through competitive selection processes. Most grants fund multi-year initiatives combining training delivery with capacity building. Only 9% require cost-sharing, easing institutional budget strain. To refine your search, filter by support type—focusing on "Training" or "Program" will surface grants most closely aligned with direct student instruction and curriculum development.
