CTE Partnership for Employers (Internship/Apprenticeship)

NH employers who donate time, equipment, and/or money to Milford Applied Technology Center qualify for an easy-to-file tax credit against business profit .

There is a new program, Work! As Learning, which provides a wage match reimbursement to employers offering paid internships to NH high school students. 

 

50% of wages paid up to $15/hr with a maximum reimbursement of $3600- plus these programs can be combined together for even more savings!

 

Example for Your Review:

• Company pays student $15/hr and receives $7.50/hr back for 480 hours through Work! As Learning = $3600 reimbursement

• If it’s a CTE student, and the company is for-profit, the company gets an additional 50% tax credit through the CTE Tax Credit on wages that have not been reimbursed= $7.50×480= $3600, $3600/2= $1800 tax credit

• In addition, through the CTE Tax Credit, employers can also be credited 50% of the income of the employee who is supervising the student during that 480 hours of internship.

Students that are approved, for an unpaid work-based learning experience, are covered under the Milford School District PRIMEX insurance policy.  A work-based learning experience is considered a school activity.

Many CTE Industry and Community Partners have partnered with a CTE program of study to host career development events at their work site.

• Up to 50% of the cost of apprenticeship and training programs offered by the regional CTE center, including compensation of employees in direct supervision and training of a students in a CTE center program.
