The Grants and Funding seems similar, what is the difference?

The Grants and Funding seems similar, what is the difference?

Where can I get help understanding and applying for funding and grants?

The Grants are paid based upon completion of an NVQ or Short Course, and you may be able to claim back qualifications or courses already completed within the past 52 weeks. 

There is no cap on the Grants Scheme other than for Plant related courses.


The Employer Network funding is based upon meeting certain criteria set out by CITB, however any costs for training are usually paid for direct by CITB. 


 Due to the differences of the two pots of money, we recommend you speak to your CITB regional representative as they will be able to guide you on getting the most of out of both 'pots of money'.

The Grants and Funding seems similar, what is the difference?

I am self employed, can I claim the Grants and Funding?

As a self employed person, you cannot directly claim for the Achievement Grant Fund.


However if you subcontract to a CITB registered company, they could, if in agreement claim on your behalf.


They must, however be able to evidence that they have been paying you for works completed. E.g. Provide invoice evidence


Please ensure you speak to your CITB representative for further guidance.
