Flexible Training Opportunities

  • Flexible Training Opportunities
  • Our Services

Flexible Training Opportunities gives Scottish businesses with up to 100 employees the opportunity to apply for up to £5,000 towards employee training costs.

Enhancing employees' skills will bring real benefits to employers, including improved productivity and a stronger more confident workforce.

Funding is available for up to 10 employees per business and the money is not a loan so the employer does not have to pay it back. Skills Development Scotland will refund up to 50% of each episode of employee training up to a maximum of £500 for each training episode.
