The U.S. Department of Energy awarded a $2,286,480 Formula Grant to the Oklahoma Department of Commerce to pilot a Trade Skill Job Training and Recruitment Program (TSJTRP). This program, funded under the Department of Energy's State Energy Program (CFDA 81.041), will engage four Community Action Agencies (CAAs) as sub-recipients to provide job training and certification in four trade skill pathways: HVAC/Mechanical, Plumbing, Electrical, and Energy Auditing. The goal is to increase Oklahoma's trade skill workforce by 350 participants through this initiative. The grant term runs from January 1, 2025 to December 31, 2026, and the program is expected to equip graduates with an Oklahoma Gap Certification for Contractors (OGCC) credential.
