Project funding was granted by the Office of the Governor of the State of Texas. The grant reflects the Governor's support of creative initiatives to train underemployed and welfare-dependent people for entry-level jobs.
Grant oversight was provided by the Texas Workforce Commission whose mission is to promote and support a workforce system that offers individuals, employers and communities opportunities to achieve and sustain economic prosperity.
IC2 Institute of the University of Texas at Austin managed project development and administration. The institute provided supervision and direction in the creation and production of the training program; managed product testing and improvements; implemented Texas statewide delivery of the product; provided summative evaluation of program effectiveness, and has commercialized EnterTech training.
The advisory coalition of more than 70 employers, community-based organizations, educators and policy makers below contributed to the development of the EnterTech Project. Coalition members contributed many in-kind donations to project activities and provided advice and assessment of project milestones.
