Eligibility & Funding
Employers
Protocol Skills recognise that your company training budgets may be limited, so we work closely with you to ensure that qualifications are delivered and subsidised by Government funding. We engage with you and research your employees’ eligibility to receive suitable funding and we will ensure this funding meets your needs.
We keep abreast of new funding opportunities being made available by the Government and we’ll keep you updated so that you can take advantage of any changes and access this funding easily.
We benefit from good working relationships with funding body brokers which enables us to ensure you receive funding and we’ll fully support you in the process.
Protocol Skills liaise with funding and awarding bodies, and Sector Skills Councils to deliver learning directly, and all our programmes meet the required National Standards and satisfy all Funding and Audit Guidance. These endorsements enable us to access a wide range of learners from numerous business sectors across the UK. That gives you the opportunity to fulfil your own financial targets.
