Employment Training Office

The Employment Training Panel (ETP) is a funding agency established by the California State Legislature in 1982. It provides financial assistance to employers for training programs that enhance the skills of their workforce, leading to long-term, well-paying jobs. ETP operates under a tripartite governing structure, with representatives from business, unions, and state government. As a funding agency, ETP supports businesses in identifying their training needs and developing their own training programs, while offering guidance and support throughout the application process.

ETP is funded through a special payroll tax paid by California employers. It is not a training agency itself, but rather assists businesses in accessing funding and resources for training initiatives. ETP's mission is to promote economic development by investing in the skills and capabilities of the state's workforce. Through its funding programs, ETP aims to support businesses in upgrading the skills of their employees, ultimately contributing to the growth and success of California's economy.
