As above, CITB registered businesses across the UK, who are levy paying and meet the criteria can access this funding.
This fund is for training courses ONLY.
The CITB Employer Network is funding designed to simplify how construction employers access training and funding and make it easier for you to access training and funding.
This funding allows for a wide range of training courses to be funded which may not have been funded via the "Grants Scheme".
This is reviewed on a case by case basis.

As part of the CITB Employer Network you will have a local advisor to support you with your training needs.
You will need to contact CITB to let them know what training you require, and they will organise it for you.

Helping Your Team to Develop and Grow
In order to be eligible to register with CITB, your company must undertake work activity related to construction and it must be listed on the Government's "Scope Order".
You will find a list of all the eligible construction activities on the CITB website.
Once registered, you’ll need to complete a Levy Return every year until you are no longer an employer within the construction industry. Therefore, please ensure you read their T&Cs carefully before committing.

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'.

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.
