Many providers within our partnership offer several courses at a time. Due to the high demand of learning and development from colleagues, we may not be able to secure a space on your ideal course. If this issue arises, we will work with you to find another suitable course or secure a space in a later session - pending approval from your line manager.
There are two options for payment: 1) Payment by invoice which is to be sent to the Workforce Development Team for processing 2) Upfront payment by staff members, with reimbursement through the Easy Expenses System If you have any questions regarding payment please respond via your DWP request
How much funding you are entitled too changes depending on your circumstances. The Workforce Development Team will discus this with you when you contact them.
