Funding Guidance

The courses offered by TSP could be accessed by anyone aged 16+ who is looking to progress in their industry.

For Apprenticeships, funding is available to support employees aged 16-24 (and also currently 25+) who are not already in full time education and who do not hold a Higher Education award (a degree, HND etc).

Through the Train to Gain service funding for NVQ's may also be requested for employed adults aged 19+ who do not already hold a full level 2 qualification (5 GCSE’s graded A*-C or equivalent).

In addition in London The Skills Partnership runs a European funded contract enabling those who do not fit the criteria above to receive a funded course.

The Skills Partnership will help to advise you directly on funding eligibility for individual employees and entire workforces.
