How Construction Companies Can Maximise CITB Funding – NVQ + 2 Days Training from £962 Net Cost

nvq + 2 day training package

Get an NVQ + 2 days Short Course Training from £962

With ongoing changes to CITB funding and tighter training budgets across the sector, many construction employers are looking for smarter ways to use their funding and grant entitlement. One of the most effective approaches is combining NVQs with short, commercial training courses under Employer Network (EN) funding.

At Workforce Skills Support, we’ve built a number of funding-optimised packages that allow levy-registered companies to upskill their teams with 2 days added value training for as little as £962 net cost, based on a Level 2 NVQ.

What’s Included in the Package

Each package includes:

These course examples have been selected for their relevance to compliance, site safety, and Building Safety Act readiness – areas where many employers are currently refocusing training investment. They can be customised to your needs.

Funding Breakdown – Get NVQ + Short Course Training from £962

  • Employer Network funding covers up to 70% of the total cost
  • CITB Achievement Grant of up to £600 per NVQ applies
  • The net employer cost starts from £962 + VAT per delegate for Level 2 NVQs
  • Packages for higher-level NVQs are also available, with the same funding model applied to keep costs low

Flexible Options

To make the most of your funding allocation:

  • Additional Level 2 NVQs can be added for £395 + VAT each (net cost)
  • Additional delegates can be added to the commercial courses (up to the course maximum) at no extra net cost
  • To qualify for Employer Network funding, a minimum of three delegates is required, and the full training day must be utilised

This flexibility means employers can train small groups efficiently

Why Act Now – CITB Funding Changes in 2025

CITB funding structures have shifted significantly in 2025, with a stronger focus on practical outcomes and employer-led models. Many employers are finding that traditional short course grant routes alone don’t stretch as far as they used to.

By blending NVQs (supported through CITB Short Qualification Grants) with short courses funded via Employer Network support, companies can meet both qualification and compliance needs while reducing their outlay.

These packages are particularly relevant for:

  • Firms working towards Building Safety Act compliance
  • Employers developing site supervision and inspection capabilities
  • Companies seeking to retain levy value before the current EN funding model changes
