Funding
Last chance to access funding for accredited training?
The availability of funding for vocational training in the workplace has been subject to a series of reviews, with the result that new restrictions are about to impact on the funding available for a number of key qualifications. The revised funding regime starts on August 1st 2010, when there will be a greater emphasis on employer contributions to co-fund a range of training programmes.
A number of Skills Academy accredited providers have informed us of unused capacity within their budgets, but they need to register appropriate learners on the courses below within the next month:
Ref | Region | Number available | Programme | Registration Deadline | Completion Deadline |
| TR/001/NW | North West | 17 | BIT NVQ Level 2 | tbc | end of the year |
