66 business network June 2019 Access funding from Skills Bank
Sheffield City Region (SCR) is inviting applications for Skills Bank, a project that provides employers with funding for training. Skills Bank is a flexible pot of funding that can
provide bespoke training which directly meets the needs of employers and enables them to choose the training provider they use. Delivered in partnership between the SCR and
Calderdale College, a total of nearly £3m of funding from ESFA (Education and Skills Funding Agency) is available for businesses looking to expand. The project supports the mission of the
SCR’s Local Enterprise Partnership (LEP) to create jobs and drive economic growth by providing local businesses with the tools needed to succeed. Vicki Thompson (pictured), Business Training Manager at the Chamber,
said: “The Chamber is delighted to be an approved training provider for Skills Bank. During phase One we supported a large number of businesses with training that supported growth and we are excited to be part of phase Two and to engage with businesses - this funding can have a massive impact.” If located within the SCR (covers Barnsley,
Bassetlaw, Bolsover, Chesterfield, Derbyshire Dales, Doncaster, North East Derbyshire, Rotherham and Sheffield) you could be eligible for funding. This funding covers the majority of our open
course programme and any bespoke training requirements, as long as the training can be shown to support the SCR's LEP mission.
