The Herefordshire Future Skills Grant is a revenue grant scheme, funded by Herefordshire Council from the Hereford Enterprise Zone retained business rates.
The aim of the grant is to support the creation of more, better paid jobs. Herefordshire Council recognises that skills are the building blocks to enable economic growth. This grant will support businesses and their employees, by raising the quality and standards of existing roles within the county.
The grant will specifically fund training courses to upskill existing employees, to support career progression and enable individuals to take on more skilled roles, leading to career progression. In turn, this ensures businesses have the skill sets required, both now and in the future.
Revenue grants of up to £2,500 per employee (50% contribution to the courses) are available. The grant is capped at £10,000 per business for the cost of training, accreditation and certificates. All courses must commence on, or before 1 March 2027.
