100% CITB Funding available for selected NVQs – act fast!

Construction businesses across the UK are being offered a rare opportunity to access 100% funding for select NVQ qualifications through the CITB Employer Network. This limited-time initiative is set to help companies upskill their teams while making the most of their CITB Levy contributions. However, the clock is ticking – the deadline for funding applications is 26th March 2025.

What’s covered?

The fully funded qualifications include:

• NVQ Level 3: Occupational Work Supervisor
• NVQ Level 4: Construction Site Supervisor
• NVQ Level 6: Construction Site Management
• NVQ Level 7: Senior Site Management

For businesses involved in Net Zero projects, additional NVQs are also fully funded, such as:

• NVQ Levels 2 & 3 in Insulation and Building Treatments
• NVQ Levels 2 & 3 in Thermal Insulation
• NVQ Level 2 in Felt Roofing, Roof Sheeting & Cladding, and Waterproof Membrane Roofing Systems

Additionally, other training programs – including Health and Safety, Plant Machinery, and specialised short courses – qualify for 70% funding.

What does this mean for Employers?

For construction companies, this funding opportunity provides a chance to upskill teams without incurring significant costs. As part of a push to support industry growth and Net Zero targets, CITB is offering a fully funded trial period for future skills training, with qualifications like Leadership and Management, Digital Skills, and Green Skills also eligible.

But there’s a caveat – the deadline for funding applications is 26th March 2025, so early action is crucial.

How to access the Funding

The process is simple:

• Join the CITB Employer Network by completing a membership form.
• Choose an Approved Training Organisation (ATO), like TUTS, as your training partner.
• Let the ATO handle the rest – from funding applications to course delivery.

As an ATO, we specialise in making this process as easy as possible, ensuring you maximise your funding benefits while accessing high-quality training.

Why this matters

The construction industry is under increasing pressure to meet modern challenges, from sustainability goals to enhanced safety standards. By taking advantage of this funding opportunity, employers can strengthen their workforce and remain competitive in a changing market.

This initiative also highlights CITB’s commitment to addressing skills shortages and supporting long-term industry growth.
