Information on funding 

This page contains some useful links on where to find out about getting financial support for learning or training.

Finding money to pay for courses can put many people off learning but there is some funding available for certain types of learning.  This may also depend on your own circumstances for example, whether or not you are working etc.

If you’re not sure where to start you can always book an advice session with one of our experienced Advisers.  They will be able to look at your circumstances and advise you what is available to you.  Just call 0800 298 0234.
