Eligibility criteria

You must be a member of the BWF and registered and in-scope of CITB. For all training (except for CNC training) there is a £1,000 limit per company across all types of training, and companies cannot have drawn down similar funding through a training group of the CITB. The BWF has a finite pot of funds, and therefore funding is allocated to members on a first-come-fisrt-served basis. This funding does not affect your ability to claim for any training eligible through the standard CITB grant scheme. The training listed above is a sample of what is funded, if you have a need for training that is not listed above, please contact the BWF for advice on eligibility.

To get more information on how to claim the funding or for further advise on eligibility criteria, please email Dave Campbell, Membership & Training Director at dave.campbell@bwf.org.uk or call 0844 815 9981.
