The New Mexico Economic Development Department announced that its Job Training Incentive Program (JTIP) will provide up to $2.2 million to 12 companies, supporting training for 225 employees across the state.
JTIP reimburses companies for at least 50% of trainee wages, with higher rates for rural jobs and for hiring recent graduates from New Mexico colleges and universities. JTIP also encourages companies to hire locally from underserved populations. All funds are paid on a reimbursement basis after training is completed, providing a direct pathway for companies to grow while developing local talent.
