Description
The Iowa Workforce Development Advanced Manufacturing Pathways Development (AMP'D) Iowa grant provides reimbursement to Iowa‑based manufacturing employers for employee training that addresses new technology adoption, workforce pipeline creation, and skilled‑labor gaps. Eligible employers must operate under NAICS 31‑33, have no layoffs in the past six months, maintain active SAM/UEI registration, and meet other compliance criteria. Reimbursement is tiered by employer size (up to 80 % for <250 employees) with a maximum individual award of $250,000 and an overall program allocation of $4.214 million. Funding covers wages for on‑the‑job training, instructor fees, tuition, certification fees, and related training expenses, but excludes equipment purchases over $5,000, travel, and indirect costs. Applicants must submit a detailed training plan, budget, and assurance form by July 24, 2026, and report monthly expenses and quarterly performance metrics.
