If you're not eligible

If you don’t have a payroll setup, you can’t currently access CITB funding—but there may be workarounds:

  • Do you have a job coming up that could involve a subcontractor?
  • Are you thinking about hiring an apprentice?
  • Do you subcontract for others? They may be able to claim CITB funding on your behalf.

Other funding options:

  • Split the payment over up to 4 months interest-free via our Online Course Booking Calendar
  • Borrow up to £25,000 over 5 years via the Government's Start Up Loan scheme for businesses under 3 years old
  • Ask your Job Centre about training support as they can offer full funding for training courses and equipment
  • Spread the cost over a longer period (interest bearing) with Payl8r - contact us for more information
