Small to medium sized businesses in Wales can claim up to £1,500 towards the cost of training graduate staff members through the GO Wales programme.
We are able to fund training that will provide a clear benefit to a business in Wales. Once an application has been approved GO Wales can potentially fund half of the cost of the course up to £1,500 per eligible graduate.
You can make an application on behalf of any graduate working in the business providing they meet the requirements listed above.
For higher level courses GO Wales can fund 50% of the cost up to a maximum of £1,500 and the business covers the rest of the cost.
The training would need to lead to a higher level qualification for the individual taking part.
Examples include: Msc, Chartered Institute of Marketing, PRINCE Project Management, MBA, and many more.
Due to high levels of demand funding for these courses is no longer available for companies in any of the following areas: Cardiff, Vale of Glamorgan, Monmouthshire and Newport.
For courses at NQF level 1-3 or courses which are not qualification bearing; GO Wales can fund 50% of the cost up to a maximum of £500 and the business would fund the remainder.
We can fund training for short courses in the following categories:
Examples of courses we have recently funded include; presentation skills, short marketing courses, Microsoft IT courses and NEBOSH.
Once you have identified a course that meets your requirements please contact us to make an application before booking or paying for the course. We cannot fund any courses retrospectively.
The training must be of benefit to the company and the participant - you will be asked to explain this when you apply and GO Wales' decision is final.
