TEC Partnership to take part in unique Skills Bootcamp pilot

The launch comes as part of the DfE’s broader reforms, including merging several adult skills budgets into the single Adult Skills Fund in 2024/25. 

Skills Bootcamps are short learning and training programmes that are free for participants. For employers wishing to train their staff, the programme will pay for 90% of training costs for SMEs with under 250 employees and 70% of costs for programmes for larger organisations.

TEC Partnership has been named as one of eight colleges entrusted to take part in this national pilot. 

As part of the project, TEC Partnership’s colleges and training providers will deliver Skills Bootcamps without the need to bid for funding through procurements. The pilot will be used to judge how wider changes can be made to the way colleges are funded and audited.

Participation in the pilot aims to enable education providers to deliver high-value provision that meets both national and local economic needs and supports learners' progress into good, sustainable jobs. This project, therefore, strongly aligns with TEC Partnership’s commitment to supporting local communities and creating new opportunities for the next generation of workers. 

TEC Partnership is proud to offer a range of Skills Bootcamps. These programmes are codesigned with employers and offer individuals a great opportunity to train in a new industry or progress in their current careers.
