NATIONAL SKILLS FUND
What is the National Skills Fund?
The government is investing £2.5 billion in the National Skills Fund as part of the government’s ongoing ‘Lifetime Skills Guarantee’ – a commitment to help adults access qualifications regardless of their age or financial status.
It will support the immediate economic recovery and future skills needs by boosting the supply of skills that employers require.
How does it work?
Any adult aged 19+ who wants to achieve their first full Level 3 qualification (equivalent to 2 full A-Levels) will be able to access hundreds of fully funded courses.
This means that if you fancy a new start or career change into one of the many logistics pathways, you can get the training you need for FREE.
Level 3 Adult Offer
Any adult aged 24 and over who wants to achieve their first full level 3 qualification, which is equivalent to a technical certificate or diploma, or 2 full A levels, will be able to access almost 400 fully funded courses.
Courses will be available in a variety of lengths, to support adults to get the skills they need to boost their careers.

Complementing the level 3 adult offer, Skills Bootcamps offer free, flexible courses of 12-16 weeks. They give people the opportunity to build up sector-specific skills and fast-track to an interview with a local employer.
