The Short Duration off-the-job training grant claim limit has been increased from £2,500 to £5,000 per employer for the 2012/2013 Grants Scheme year. This change is being implemented to reflect the recent increase in the daily rate from £22.50 to £50 and will be applied retrospectively from 1 August 2012. You can claim for attendance on construction-related training courses of six hours or more for your construction employees, labour-only sub-contractors (LOSC) and agency staff. The grant is now £50 per person for each full day of training. Click for more info
