Cost and Availability

Start with the need, then determine the pathway

Many MAIN courses, public resources, and selected statewide programs are available at no cost. Customized training, advisory, and implementation-support engagements are evaluated according to scope, eligibility, available funding, partner participation, location, capacity, and organizational need. Any applicable costs are determined case by case before work begins.
