The Process

1. Qualify

2–3 months

GLTAAC works with you to help determine if your company will qualify for the TAAF program. Read more about qualifying here. GLTAAC will then compile the application (called a Petition) from information provided by you.

2. Plan

2–3 months

Once approved for the program, a GLTAAC Project Manager works directly with you to identify, define, develop, and prioritize the projects your company wants to undertake through the program. These are compiled into a plan (called an Adjustment Plan). Read more about the planning process and Adjustment Plan document here.

3. Implement

3–5 years

With the plan in place, your company implements its projects with GLTAAC managing the process and paying half the cost. Companies have up to five years to complete the program. However, program support can usually be used at a faster pace. More about projects is available here.

Program cost

TAAF costs are low, and there are no fees to apply.

Phase 1

Qualify & Apply
This phase is free to the client.

Phase 2

Assess & Plan
75% of the costs in this phase are covered by the Economic Development Administration. Firms themselves only pay $1,000–$2,000 to have their Adjustment Plan developed.
