Announcing NEW  S TART R ECONNECT
 
NSCN is pleased to announce NEW 
S TART R ECONNECT
 the result of a strategic partnership between NSCN and the  New Jersey Community College Consortium (NJCCC) that will enable NJ businesses the opportunity to receive up to $10,000 per hire in wage reimbursement for up to six months for hiring a NSCN member. Participating in New Start Reconnect allows any New Jersey business of any size within the life sciences, advanced manufacturing, and information technology industries  to be reimbursed 50% to 90% of an eligible NSCN member's wages, based on the company's current number of employees.

New hires must be NSCN members and must be eligible and certified under the the NJCCC's Ready To Work New Jersey program. Employers can hire more than one individual through 
N EW S TART R ECONNECT
as long as all new hires meet the qualifications.
