Data Skills Credits funding call 2025 Tay Cities Region
Ends on
Supported by the Tay Cities Partnership, Data Skills for Work at The Data Lab is offering eligible training and education providers funding to deliver data skills training for learners in our target groups as part of an integrated and inclusive pipeline of development.
The maximum grant is £10,000 per course for a minimum of 20 learners, the minimum is £5,000 for a minimum of 10 learners (training must be free at the point of access to those learners). The grant will be administered by The Data Lab (TDL) through The University of Edinburgh. Courses can be delivered multiple times (and therefore applicants can apply to deliver more than one course), but all courses must be completed by 30th September 2025
The Data Lab is publicly funded and therefore these grants will constitute a state funded subsidy where the organisation receiving the funding is classed as an “enterprise” under the Subsidy Control Act 2022. The Subsidy Control Act 2022 permits enterprises to lawfully receive subsidies up to a total value of £315,000 over the period consisting of the elapsed part of the current financial year, and the two financial years immediately preceding the current financial year period (the “Minimum Financial Assistance Cap”). Where an organisation offered funding is an enterprise under the Subsidy Control Act 2022, the organisation will be required to confirm that its receipt of such funding shall not cause it (together with any organisation forming part of the same enterprise) to exceed the Minimum Financial Assistance Cap. Before applying, you must ensure, where applicable, you will be able to provide such confirmation.
Once we have reviewed your application, we will be in touch to let you know if your application has been successful, and if so, to provide you with our Provider Agreement for your review. Please note that any awards of funding will be subject to agreeing and signing our Provider Agreement.
