General FAQ's

Are there considerations for individuals with disabilities and TechCred?

Tech-focused credentials can be a great fit for people with disabilities. The Office of Workforce Transformation and our partner, Opportunities for Ohioans with Disabilities, have a shared desire for TechCred to be a useful tool to upskill Ohioans.

Opportunities for Ohioans with Disabilities is the state of Ohio agency that provides employment services to individuals with disabilities to help them prepare for work.

Current and prospective employees who have a disability may be eligible for Vocational Rehabilitation (VR) services through Opportunities for Ohioans with Disabilities (OOD ), a state agency. VR services can help individuals with disabilities overcome employment barriers. Individuals who are interested in VR services can begin by applying online at OODWorks.com. This website provides information about OOD’s services and includes a self-assessment designed to assist individuals in deciding if VR services are the right fit.

For employers, OOD’s Business Relations Specialists (BRSs ) can identify qualified candidates with disabilities. Current and prospective employees who are eligible for OOD’s vocational rehabilitation (VR) services can receive individualized supports, like job coaching, tutoring, or assistive technology to help complete technology training and succeed on the job.

How do individuals who are unemployed take advantage of TechCred?

TechCred is an opportunity for individuals ready to join the workforce, but who need additional tech training. Individuals can connect with employers and encourage them to sponsor their technology training, knowing that the employer will be reimbursed as soon as the individual earns their credential. Businesses hiring for technology roles can be found on ohiomeansjobs.com. A great place for an individual to start their journey towards a tech career is at a local OhioMeansJobs Center.

Is the In-Demand Jobs List the same as the TechCred Eligible Credential List?

The In-Demand Jobs List and the TechCred Eligible Credential List are NOT the same.

The In-Demand Jobs List includes occupations that are classified as in-demand. The In-Demand Jobs List is developed with labor market information, input from JobsOhio, and feedback from Ohio employers. The In-Demand Jobs List includes occupations which are technology-focused and occupations which are not technology-focused. 

The TechCred Eligible Credential List only includes certificates and certifications that are deemed technology-focused, industry-recognized, and short-term. Credentials are added to the list through employer applications which are reviewed by a panel of stakeholders. 

How much can businesses get reimbursed?

Businesses who submit successful applications will be reimbursed, up to $2000 per credential, when current or prospective employees complete technology-focused credentials.

What's the difference between TechCred and IMAP?

Ohio's TechCred Program gives employers and businesses the chance to upskill current and future employees in today’s tech-infused economy. Employers who submit successful applications will be reimbursed up to $2,000 per credential when current or prospective employees complete eligible technology-focused credentials.

The Individual Microcredential Assistance Program (IMAP) helps Ohioans participate in a training program to receive a credential at no cost. Individuals who use IMAP work directly with the training provider to receive a credential. 

While both programs help upskill Ohioans, TechCred helps employers upskill their employees, and IMAP helps upskill Individuals, whether they are employed or not.
