Can an employer in the South East or Scotland regions apply for funding to help with training staff?

South East and Scotland regional government agencies provide funding for employer training programmes, among other things. The government offers loans and grants to small businesses for such things, and can help employers get their workers the training they need to run the small business more effectively and skilfully. The South East grants are provided at the regional rank, and those in Scotland are provided at the local rank, but there are national options out there as well, open to people nationwide. Remember to check the eligibility conditions and intended uses of programmes before making your decision.
