Beyond 2010 - Funding

 

Beyond 2010 is giving businesses in the East of England access to sector specific training advice and funding for new skills to harness their full potential.

Our team of experienced specialists are working with SMEs to both identify higher level training opportunities that will provide a targeted solution to training needs and help them to access up to 50% of the cost of that training.

Beyond 2010 is funded by the European Social Fund and East of England Development Agency and managed by the Essex Development & Regeneration Agency.

Beyond 2010 includes the Response to Redundancy programme which provides information, advice and re-training opportunities to individuals facing redundancy. This programme is managed by The Consultancy Home Counties (TCHC) on behalf of ExDRA (Essex Development and Regeneration Agency).
