Are you struggling to innovate? Is sourcing new, relevant and inspiring qualifications that learners can afford proving to be a challenge?
In a crowded market, simply offering courses isn’t enough. The most successful training providers are those that unlock growth through adult training funding and government-funded qualifications. This isn’t just about ticking a box; it’s about delivering sustainable and relevant qualifications that empower adult learners and open doors to meaningful career paths.
At Skills and Education Group, we don’t just provide qualifications; we offer the support to underpin your growth. From our dedicated Centre Support team and Relations Managers to our resources, including a brand-new funding guide, we are here for you.
Why Funding is Your Most Powerful Business Tool
For training providers, funded qualifications are an essential asset – that support growth and sustainability.
- Attract More Learners: Government funding, such as the Adult Education Budget (AEB) and Advanced Learner Loans, removes the financial barrier for many potential learners, broadening your audience.
- De-risk Your Provision: By partnering with us, you can deliver in-demand, fully funded vocational qualifications with confidence, knowing the funding is in place to support your operations and ensure a steady stream of enrolments.
- Meet Market Demand: Our qualifications are regularly reviewed to align with government skills priorities and employer needs. This ensures your learners gain the skills and knowledge needed to access jobs and progress in their careers. Whether someone is asking “How do I find a new career?” or seeking career guidance for adults, you’ll be ready with relevant, outcome-driven options.
But why choose us as your partner?
