You might be able to get
state funding to cover much of the cost of
attending MPACT® classes. The Focused Industrial
Training program can provide State of North
Carolina funds to assist companies in training
maintenance employees. We know that other states
have similar programs.
Although the FIT
web site refers to training at community
colleges, we know that in some cases they will
reimburse for training at the MPACT Learning
Center. Available funds and specific policies
might vary from one community college to
another. You should contact your local community
college to discuss application to your
needs.

How does

leaders of personnel who perform industrial
