Funding for Leadership and Management

As a commissioned provider of the Government’s Skills Bootcamp, part of the Lifetime Skills Guarantee, we are proud to support individuals and organisations in gaining the skills they need for long-term career success.

We have a limited number of funded places available on our flagship Leadership and Management programmes:

Each programme leads to an ILM-accredited qualification, nationally recognised as a benchmark standard for excellence in leadership and management.

Employer Contribution

Our funded programmes are up to 70-90% funded by the Government – meaning, training could be as little as £200 per staff member.
