CERP Guidelines and Application

The Ohio Grocers Foundation’s (OGF) Career Education Reimbursement Program (CERP) was first introduced in 2003. Since that time, OGF has awarded over $65,000 in funding to OGA members employees.

The primary goal of the OGF Career Education Reimbursement Program is to provide financial support to individuals who wish to enhance skills, increase job knowledge and further careers in the food industry.

The CERP Guidelines and Application allow for input from the store owner or manager on an employee's potential career path and/or possible opportunities for growth.  CERP is available for individuals and minimum eligibility requirements include:

  • Employed by an Ohio Grocers Association member business in good standing;
  • Work a minimum of 20 hours per week;
