Introduction

The City of Rochester is seeking proposals from qualified individuals or organizations to perform Occupational Health and Safety Training for the Rochester Environmental Job (REJob 3.0) Training Program. The goal of the REJob 3.0 Training Program is to train a total of 60 students over two (2) years for placement in the environmental construction fields. This program is being funded through a Brownfields Job Training Grant (BJT) grant from the United States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) to the City.

The REJob 3.0 Training Program is a comprehensive, multi-partner effort designed to lead to sustainable, long-term environmental employment and to make sure affected residents share in the economic benefits derived from Brownfields redevelopment. The REJob 3.0 program will specifically target dislocated workers; severely underemployed individuals; and unemployed individuals including low-income and minority residents, veterans, and those with little or no advanced education. The content of the training has been designed based on substantial input from environmental employers canvassed through survey, the Workforce Advisory Council, and consultation with other communities that have had successful EPA BJT grant funded programs.

This RFP is for a component of the REJob 3.0 training program.
