At Simply Learning, we’re committed to keeping our clients informed and empowered.
As a CITB Approved Training Organisation (ATO), we’re excited to share important updates from CITB that will impact how construction businesses access training and funding.

As an ATO, Simply Learning is proud to be part of this transformation. The rollout is starting with existing ATOs, so expect more updates soon.
CITB is streamlining its funding to make it easier for employers to access support. Here’s what’s changing:
From 30 September 2025, the Skills & Training Fund will close.
Employer Networks (ENs) will become the sole route for business development funding.
The grants scheme will continue to support core construction training.
The uplift supporting qualifications for Industry Accreditation will end on 31 December 2025.
Grant values will revert to £600 per qualification.
This initiative is being retired as ENs now effectively gather employer feedback and training needs.
From September 2025, qualifications at the ‘Award’ level will receive a grant of £240 instead of £600.
This ensures funding is targeted for maximum impact.
These changes are designed to simplify the training landscape and ensure funding reaches more employers. If you’re unsure how this affects your business or want help navigating the new system, our team is here to support you.
