Who is eligible for the programme?

Individuals:
- Could be registered as unemployed (or economically inactive such as career breaks) within the last 12 months and looking to apply for a digital role on completion of training
- Could be employed but looking for a career change into a digital role on completion of training (different department in current organisation, or new employer)
Employers:
- Could be looking to upskill or repurpose existing staff and on completion of training the employee(s) must move into a new digital role, or their existing role must significantly change
- Could be looking to recruit new staff to fill a digital vacancy and therefore commit to interviewing individuals who complete digital skills training
