Spending Priorities
Our approved Perkins application requires us to identify spending priorities into three levels. This information is determined based on our Comprehensive Local Needs Assessment, as well as feedback from industry partners, DEED data, and much more.
- Manufacturing
Healthcare - Agriculture
Early Childhood
Construction Trades - Culinary & Hospitality
Accounting
Even if your funding request falls into a lower priority group (or might not be listed at all) – don’t panic! We encourage you to still ask so we can advocate for you!
