What is the Workforce Upskilling Grant?
The workforce upskilling grant is a non-repayable grant of up to a maximum of £2,000, funded by the European Regional Development Fund (ERDF) and administered by Business Gateway Fife, for Fife companies looking to improve the productivity and profitability of their business through staff training.
What can the Workforce Upskilling Grant be used for?
Businesses can use the Grant towards staff training to develop their workforce in various areas such as:
- Advanced Manufacturing
- Lean/Six Sigma
- Cyber Security
- Using Hybrid/Virtual Reality in the Workplace

Whilst the Grant is not restricted to any particular topic or training provider, it is based on the employer’s needs - exclusions apply.
