Flexible Workforce Development Fund

2023-25 Fund Update

Unfortunately, due to significant pressures on the Scottish Government budget, no funds are being allocated to the Flexible Workforce Development Fund (FWDF) during 2023-24 and 2024-25.  Whilst this is extremely disappointing news, Ayrshire College is committed to supporting the needs of our business community and build upon the strong and positive working relationships we have with employers across the region.  We will continue to support skills training across Ayrshire through commercial contracts as well as seek to identify and utilise other funding sources.

Our Business Growth Officers would be happy to meet with you to discuss how we can support the training and development needs of your business. Please contact us on 01292 261469 or email businessgrowth@ayrshire.ac.uk, and download our course brochure for a sample of training solutions we can provide.

The Ayrshire Skills Investment Fund is a new funding route for businesses and eligible Ayrshire residents to upskill.
