NEXT STEPS
To make an application under Year 5 of the Flexible Workforce Development Fund, you should
contact the Business Development Officer that sent you this document. They will be able to help
take you through the process:
• Creation of a costed training plan based on your training needs
• Advising on the completion of the FWDF application form
• Advising on the evidence you need to provide along with your application to confirm your
eligibility to apply for the FWDF:
o For levy payers, proof from your payroll system of contributions to the
Apprenticeship Levy
o For SMEs, proof of SME status
They will then pass the completed application to the FWDF Manager for approval. From there, the
FWDF Team will be in touch to get your training scheduled.
