Why use the CITB Skills And Training Fund

Cost-Neutral Investment in Skills

While there’s an initial outlay, once the claim is processed and reimbursed by CITB, your training becomes effectively free. This allows you to invest in employee development without impacting your bottom line.

Upskill as a Team

The fund is ideal for group training sessions, making it perfect for rolling out company-wide qualifications or improving shared competencies. This strengthens your team’s skills uniformly and boosts overall productivity.

Improve Business Performance

Better-skilled staff lead to improved quality of work, higher efficiency, and a competitive edge, especially in a tight labor market.

Claim Back Quickly

The process of claiming back costs from CITB is straightforward and relatively quick, especially if planned properly from the start and we will support you with the process.

Support for Long-Term Growth

By developing in-house talent, you're not just filling short-term gaps — you're building a more resilient, capable workforce for the future.
