Reading Time: ~1 Min
Micro credential training and rapid reskilling are quickly becoming key steps in the education process for those working in digital. For that reason, larger organizations and governments are increasing their focus on funding to make the courses more accessible to those who need it. We’ve put together some of the top funding resources in Canada to get ahead in digital training!
Canada Job Grant
The Canada Job Grant is available in multiple provinces across Canada and distributed through provincial governments. Through the grant, Canadian businesses can get up to a third of employee training costs covered.
This is an awesome opportunity for businesses who are looking to keep their digital marketing and digital focused employees in house and enhance their existing teams. Visit your provincial government’s website for more information.

It is eligible for either B.C. registered businesses or non-profit organizations. The program matches underemployed youth and not-for-profits in digital related roles and provides the funding needed for successful transitions.

The Canada Digital Adoption Program offers funding for small and medium sized businesses to bring their sales and services to a digital space. The program supports in building e-commerce platforms and the development of digital strategies. In addition to this the program provides training, and work opportunities for young Canadians.
