Thanks for your enquiry
You do not make clear what you would like to get the funding for.
There is no government funding available to set up a training centre only to train learners.
To receive funding as a business directly from the government you have to be an approved provider and complete a tender.
To become an approved provider of training you will have to complete a Pre Qualification Questionnaire. This Questionnaire is only available once a year and is published on a web site http://www.lsc.bravosolution.co.uk
Once you have completed the questionnaire successfully you will receive invitations to tender when these are published.
The other option is to sub-contract training from an approved provider, however funding for all training schemes is in a state of flux and it is very difficult for providers to state with any certainty what funding may be available in the future.
If you would like to discuss this with me, please telephone 08454 600 700
