Coaches: Get Qualified
Get Qualified North West aims to help individuals gain qualifications across the Sport, Outdoors and Health & Fitness sectors. It is a fantastic opportunity to receive financial support towards your training and development needs. This programme is not only open to individuals but also to employers, subject to eligibility, who may have staff that would specifically benefit from accessing support for up-skilling and development opportunities.
Get Qualified NW provides applicants with the opportunity to receive a contribution of up to 60% towards course fees - capped at £200 for a Level 2 and £300 for a Level 3 - for certain Sport, Outdoors and Health & Fitness qualifications.
