Employer funding
Businesses in Cambridgeshire and Peterborough can access funding depending upon their size

If you are an employer that is interested in accessing funding to upskill existing employees, you will need to register your interest directly with the Bootcamp provider. The Bootcamp provider will discuss the funding level with you, as to whether it will be a 10% employer contribution per cost of the course per employee, or a 30% contribution per cost of the course per employee.
The employer will make the contribution payment directly to the Training Provider. The Cambridgeshire & Peterborough Combined Authorities will pay the remainder of the cost over the course of the Bootcamp to the Training Provider.
