How does the CITB Short Qualification Grant Scheme work?
The CITB Short Qualification Grant Scheme is a funding program designed to support employers in the construction industry by providing grants for employees and subcontractors who complete short-duration training courses and gain recognised qualifications.
With this scheme, the CITB registered company pays for the training course upfront, then makes a claim for the grant once the qualification has been achieved.
Companies that wish to take advantage of this grant scheme must be CITB registered. This includes small employers (i.e. those with a wage bill of less than £80k) who don’t have to pay the levy.
*PLEASE NOTE* CITB have confirmed that from 1st January 2026 the grant will be reduced to a flat rate of £600 across all NVQ levels.
To receive the higher payments (as outlined below), you will need to have fully completed your NVQ before 1st January 2026. Any completions after this date will only be eligible for the £600 rate.
Until the grant changes come into effect, the claimable amounts are as follows:
- £600 for a Level 2 NVQ
- £1250 for a Level 3 – 4 NVQ
- £1500 for a Level 6 – 7 NVQ
