Our comprehensive understanding of workforce development and funding optimisation ensures sustainable results for your organisation.
Do you work with organisations of all sizes?
Yes, we work with organisations of all sizes across various sectors. Whether you’re a large levy-paying employer or a growing SME, we tailor our approach to meet your specific needs and budget. Our flexible solutions ensure every organisation can access professional development support.
What funding options are available for workforce development?
At Irvine Consultancy, we guide organisations through the complete spectrum of workforce development funding opportunities.
For levy-paying employers (those with an annual wage bill over £3 million), we help optimise your apprenticeship levy investment through strategic planning and implementation.
Non-levy employers can access substantial government co-investment, where 95% of training costs are funded. Additional government funding streams include the Adult Skills Fund for essential skills development, Strategic Development Fund for sector-specific initiatives, and specialist funding for adult social care workforce development.
Our expertise ensures organisations of all sizes maximise available funding through strategic planning and implementation, creating sustainable workforce development solutions that deliver measurable returns on investment.
Whether you’re a large employer looking to optimise levy spending or a growing organisation seeking to access government co-investment, we provide tailored guidance to transform your workforce development funding into lasting organisational impact.
