Low Carbon Training Support Available

The Low Carbon Skills Fund gives Scottish businesses with up to 250 employees the opportunity to apply for up to £125,500 towards employee training costs. It
  • provides funding for up to 25 episodes of training
  • provides 50% of training costs, up to a maximum of £500 per episode
By increasing expertise in this growth area we can harness the opportunities offered by our natural resources to make Scotland a world leader in sustainable energy.
We have detailed a list of the types and levels of training that are eligible for support. These include training in:
  • Renewable energy, low carbon technologies and micro-generation
  • Energy efficiency, environmental and clean technologies
  • Waste management and reuse
  • Reducing carbon in supply and energy management
The Fund cannot be used for statutory training, such as F Gas training; however it can be used for training relevant to emerging legislation in the low carbon sector. See programme guidance for full details at http://www.cicstart.org/userfiles/file/Low-Carbon-Skills-Fund.pdf
