Support with New LDSS Funding for Staff Training & Development
At A1 Education & Training Ltd, we’re committed to helping you navigate the new funding opportunities now available for your staff’s training and development. This funding could dramatically reduce your costs while enhancing your workforce’s skills and qualifications.
This initiative helps adult care providers continue to meet Care Quality Commission (CQC) standards and improve service quality. It’s open to all employed staff—regardless of their time in role or in the UK.
Transition from WDF to LDSS
The Workforce Development Fund (WDF) is ending. Now you can claim through the new Adult Social Care Learning and Development Support Scheme (LDSS) which offers:
- Funding for any non-regulated staff employed in England with a National Insurance number.
- 60% upfront funding once training starts.
- No repayments if staff don’t complete.
- You can still use training agreements to protect your investment.
Key Dates & Guidance
- Funding applies to courses paid for from 1/4/24 to 31/3/25.
- Qualifications must be completed by 31/12/26.
Popular New Courses You Can Claim For
Our Level 2 Adult Social Care Certificate is fully fundable at £750 via LDSS. Or progress staff to the Level 3 Adult Care Diploma at £895 with £815 reclaimable. Most Health and Social Care courses we offer are LDSS claimable to support your budget.
Flexible Delivery & Discounts
- Face to face, online, or blended learning options tailored to you.
- Discounts for multiple qualifications.
- We also create bespoke courses to suit your needs.
