Great News: Government Funding Now Available for All Learners
Government Funding Now Available for All Learners, Regardless of Previous Qualifications
Retraining and upskilling just got a whole lot easier! In a significant change to government funding eligibility, everyone is now entitled to access government-funded training places, regardless of whether they already hold a higher qualification. This is fantastic news for anyone looking to change careers or gain new skills, as previous qualifications will no longer hinder receiving funding.
A Game Changer for Career Retraining
Course fees have long been one of the biggest challenges for individuals wanting to retrain or upskill. While Pines Learning has always strived to keep costs low, unfunded places have still been prohibitively expensive for many. In the past, applicants with existing, sometimes outdated, qualifications were often disappointed to learn they didn’t qualify for subsidised training. But now, that’s all changed.
This policy shift means that everyone, regardless of their educational background, can enrol in a subsidised course and pursue the career they’ve always wanted. Whether you’re looking to transition into a new field or refresh your skills in a sector with better job prospects, this opportunity opens doors to countless possibilities.
Who Will Benefit from This Change?
These funding changes are particularly beneficial for individuals who:
- Completed a qualification after leaving school but have since decided they want to work in a different industry.
- They are returning to the workforce after a break and find that their previous qualifications are outdated or irrelevant to the current job market.
- They have found that their existing qualifications haven’t led to the career opportunities they hoped for and are seeking a fresh start.
If this sounds like you, now is the perfect time to take advantage of these changes and retrain in a field that excites you!
