Skills and retraining

Being equipped with the right skills allows people to make a really telling contribution in their workplace. Not only does that benefit the business’ productivity, but it gives that individual a better chance to further their own career. That’s why EEDA offers a range of support to businesses looking to strengthen their employees through skills training.

Train to Gain

Train to Gain offers funding to businesses who want to improve their workforce’s basic skills levels in numeracy and literacy.

The government has announced the closure of the Train to Gain service which will end on 31 July 2011.

Beyond 2010

EEDA’s £7.2 million Beyond 2010 programme helps small to medium-sized businesses give staff new skills to move the business forward.
