“Senate Bill 166 provides a new tax credit incentive for local businesses to hire Career and Technical Education students ”
PARMA, Ohio — There's a new incentive for businesses across the state to hire students in Career and Technical Education Programs.
“Students learn in different ways and for some people learning hands-on, you know a skill like this is more practical and gives them more purpose,” said Gordon Sweeney, a student in Parma City High School’s Career and Technical Education program.“He’s learning on the job, hands on training best thing you can do in this business,” said Alan Duffy, the owner of Al's Auto Service Shop.
“It’s going to provide them with some great opportunities to fill labor shortages,” said Parma City High School Workforce Development Administrative Specialist Chuck Caldwell. “The state of Ohio passed Senate Bill 166 that’s a tax incentive for eligible businesses, so they have to be for-profit businesses, and they can receive up to $5,000 or 15% for eligible wages for students that are participating in eligible Career and Technical education program,” said Caldwell.“That means a whole lot to me actually because that means I’m getting in the field a lot earlier than a lot of other people, which gives you a better start,” said Sweeney.
