Montana Department of Commerce Awards Business Planning, Job Creation, and Workforce Training Grants to Seven Montana Communities

The Montana Department of Commerce today announced that more than $433,000 of grant funding has been awarded to grow and assist businesses in seven Montana communities. The job creation, planning, and workforce training grant funding is provided by Commerce’s Big Sky Economic Development Trust Fund (BSTF).

“We know that sustainable, good-paying jobs are at the core of creating financial resiliency for Montanans. That’s why Commerce will continue to assist local Montana businesses in creating more good-paying jobs for Montana workers,” said Montana Department of Commerce Director Scott Osterman. “This BSTF grant funding will help these Montana businesses plan for future growth, generate new opportunities through workforce training, and create long-term employment for workers in these communities.”
