The State of Wisconsin's $30 million investment in the Wisconsin Fast Forward (WFF) grant program is a nationally recognized, innovative talent development solution driven by Wisconsin businesses to train and retain highly skilled workers. Over $18 million in WFF grant contracts has been issued to date, supporting nearly 200 worker training projects and benefiting hundreds of employers and thousands of workers across Wisconsin.

WFF is administered by the Office of Skills Development through a transparent and accountable process. Grant funds support short- and medium-term employer-led worker training projects that:

  • Encourage increased collaboration between Wisconsin businesses and workforce training partners
  • Fill current and ongoing skill requirements of Wisconsin employers
  • Place workers in long-term positions with opportunities for professional growth and economic advancement.
