Short description

All Austrian regions (Bundesländer) have established funding schemes for promoting local companies in the fields such as innovation, export activities, or training. Training is supported either as a stand-alone activity or as a part of a broader initiative, for example, targeting innovation activities. Particular schemes are typically volatile, often available only for a short period, however, consecutive schemes are providing similar types of support for training over time. Currently, there is no comprehensive overview of Austria's local schemes supporting training in companies (in particular on schemes where cofounding of training is embedded in wider support schemes). Specific conditions differ between Bundesländer.
