Copy of Category 3 and 5 Budget Worksheet.xlsx

This is a budget worksheet for the EOLWD/DAS GROW Apprenticeship Grants program administered by the Commonwealth of Massachusetts. The document serves as the financial submission template for applicants responding to the state's request for proposals to expand and diversify registered apprenticeship programs. Applicants are required to complete a detailed line-item budget detailing how the requested grant funding will be allocated across various budget categories. The priority deadline for applications is August 28, 2026, at 11:59 p.m., with anticipation of multiple awards resulting from this procurement initiative.

The budget worksheet establishes maximum funding caps of $250,000 for Category 3 and $20,000 for Category 5, with a total budget line showing zero dollars, indicating this is a blank template awaiting completion by applicants. Applicants must itemize all proposed expenditures within their respective category caps and ensure their total budget does not exceed the specified maximum. This document is a critical component of the application process and requires careful financial planning to demonstrate responsible use of grant funds in support of apprenticeship program expansion and diversity objectives in Massachusetts.
