Framing Training (GCF) & Military Funding.
Posted: Fri 10 Jan, 2020 12:13 pm
Hello everyone,
I'm looking for advice about accessing 'enhanced learning credits' from the military, to go towards my picture framing training.
I am transitioning into the picture framing world, after 22 years in the Army. I'll be leaving the military in 2021, and I currently work at two different picture framing workshops in my spare time.
As part of my resettlement I am entitled to funding from the military towards courses and qualifications, and I'm going to undertake some expert training over the next 12 months, in order to achieve GCF.
In order for me to access the funding, any training provider must be registered with the Enhanced Learning Credits scheme, and any qualification needs to be nationally recognised at level 3 or higher.
I know members of the military in the past have accessed the money, so I know it's possible! Apparently many trained with someone in Bristol?
So my questions are;
Are there any framers on here who are ex military, and managed to use their learning credits to train?
Does anyone know of any trainers who have trained military personnel using the credits?
Can anyone point me in the right direction, or introduce me to someone who can?
Apologies for the long winded post, and thanks in advance,
Martin Roberts.
