Depending on who you talk to there may be some funding available, the person doing the course (depending on their age) should have their fees paid, but from what I can gather there should be something available for the us the employer. Our YA has only been to college 3 times since September, So we are doing all the training and then an assessor (who is very good) comes every few weeks, so I’m not sure why the college get to keep all the money they only fill in forms and tick boxes.
We do the training.
