Retrain Manitoba Grant Program
Up to $2,500 Per Employee, $75,000 Per Company is Available

Red River College Polytechnic has partnered with Economic Development Winnipeg and the Manitoba Chambers of Commerce to support the new Retrain Manitoba initiative.
The initiative originated from $12.5 million provided by the Province of Manitoba for training and professional development and provides eligible Manitoba businesses with a skills development grant program of up to $2,500 per employee (maximum of $75,000 per company) for retraining and upskilling to adapt to the changing needs of businesses as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic.

Featured Training: Micro-Credentials
Micro-credentials are shareable endorsements of knowledge, skills or competencies gained through the completion of a course or module or demonstration of understanding.
They are also known as digital badges, micro-certifications or mini-degrees, and allow employers to see immediate qualifications for the specific skills that they are seeking.
Due to their flexibility, they provide quick training that meets the needs of employers.
