Hi Bob,



Now that Easter has passed and we’ve moved into a new tax year, I wanted to 
send a final note before I close the loop.

Across April, we’ve seen a clear trend.

More employers are taking the opportunity to upskill existing teams while 
funding is still available, particularly with changes on the horizon later 
this year. Our new website is now fully populated with all of our funded 
courses with detailed course information - you can access the new website 
here - https://www.skillsfundinggroup.com/funded-courses/ 
<https://d5Qh6n04.na1.hubspotlinks.com/Ctc/DR+113/d5Qh6n04/VW5xd08G2Lq2W5B4r_45Y1ZJxW8SvcRS5Nv9htN1qZLsb3m2nnW7Y8-PT6lZ3m_W3-XNWf3x8Q43W6yHqh78jc0NxW997Qyj979mB-W6DQ1r63sHnpbW5tJ-rB5JS2N3W19LBsv11XB0JVcw8rL20SRJqV1YBz28sK2g7W3sWHzb6jMm-5N8_zjNRTVFnnW95xDlS5Kc5hqW2Mz1qn8xNRdzN3gbGRYcQnmKW5hGKg51QWyC9W9lgDWD6t95B8W48pPPn9cTxhPW3sJpSF8wXs31W1F5ldm3tF07NW63F0cM2C6bGDW9d2ggJ3lzFdnW7Js01T10BwtFVfqgGw331MTFW1S6wn86J5wLWVJFfSc2m8HbDW1D3_9Z1YGtRvW92N8J382yNRrf3bV8T404> 
You can view our full 2026 Funded Course brochure here - 2026 Funded Courses



April focus in particular:

*	Leadership and management programmes are being phased out of funding from 
September - Get your team signed up now while funding is available
*	AI and digital capability is becoming a priority across most 
organisations - We have 7 AI focussed courses for
*	Many businesses are choosing to act now rather than carry the cost later

What we’re typically supporting with right now is:

Leadership & Management
Developing team leaders, managers and senior leaders before funding changes 
come into effect

AI & Automation
Embedding AI into day-to-day workflows across roles, improving efficiency, 
reporting and decision-making

Finance, HR & Payroll
Strengthening core business functions with better visibility, compliance and 
commercial awareness

Marketing & Digital
Improving campaign performance, content output and data-driven decision 
making

Data, IT & Technical
Building internal capability to support systems, security, and digital 
transformation



The consistent theme across all of these is simple:

Upskill the people you already have
Improve performance immediately
Do it while funding still supports it



If this is something you’ve been considering, now is the time most 
organisations are choosing to move.

Happy to sense-check where this could add value for your team and what 
funding looks like in your specific situation.
