ITAG has Training Grants from the State of Pennsylvania that are going begging.
This money can be applied to training that includes Agile Development. It is significant and can be up to 50% of the cost of a course. Like most programs, there are requirements that have to be met.
ONE OF THESE REQUIREMENTS IS THAT THE TRAINING MUST BE COMPLETED BY JUNE 30th, 2017
I have links to documents that will help with this. These docs came from the coordinator of the ITAG program, Marianne Stack
Grant Application for a company ( one per company)
A short walkthrough of the Application Process is at https://www.esa.dced.state.pa.us/Documents/How%20to%20Apply%20with%20Single%20Application%20Short%20App%20121516.pdf

Easy and simple eligibility: trainees must be employed residents of Pennsylvania and training must occur between January 1, 2017 and June 30, 2017. Several courses have already been approved:
