The Build and Enhance Skills through Training program (BEST program), supports staff learning and development.

Every year the BEST Program supports staff members’ efforts to develop workplace knowledge, skills and abilities. The BEST Program offers a training subsidy of 75 percent – up to a maximum of $500 – of the cost of employee enrollment in noncredit programs similar to those offered by Northampton Community College. The department is responsible for the balance of the cost.

The BEST Program is easy to use. Select this link regarding policies and procedures.
