Train to Gain

What is Train to Gain?

Train to Gain is a Learning and Skills Council (LSC) initiative that aims to provide a single point of access for businesses to get training advice and support through a nationwide network of skills brokers who provide impartial, independent advice on training.

In return for their commitment, employers can expect that Train to Gain will give them access to:

  • Quality assured advice in identifying skills needs at all levels, from skills brokers and training providers with expertise in their area of business.
  • Help to identify and source high quality training and qualifications to meet those skills needs.
  • An expert who will pull together a skills solution package which may include government training subsidies, alongside the employer’s own financial contribution.
  • For those making the Skills Pledge, follow up advice and support that is fully integrated within the Train to Gain Service.
  • Access to advice on wider business needs, which will be enhanced from April 2009 with the transfer of skills brokerage to Business Link.
