As a member of the State University of New York network of Business and Industry Centers, Cayuga has access to extensive educational resources to meet company training needs. Our programs can introduce employees to new technologies, upgrade existing skills, or bring about cultural changes throughout your company. Area employers utilize BIC training to become High Performance Work Organizations (HPWO), to become world class competitors, to increase productivity, to improve employee morale, to provide access to degree programs, and to ensure survival in today's global marketplace.

Cayuga's Business & Industry Center can work with you to develop cost effective training programs to meet your specific training needs. Training may take place in the BIC or at your company work site at times that are mutually convenient. The Center also maintains an extensive video library and has staff available to assist companies in developing their own videotapes for training purposes. Cayuga's BIC has secured more than $5.5 million in state and federal training grants for area companies. We will work with your company to develop appropriate training programs and assist in securing necessary funding.
