ProAct

Recently announced by the Welsh Assembly Government - ProAct - will be a major extension to the Workforce Development Programme that will provide additional training assistance to business that are suffering during the downturn. On a selective basis, there will be additional financial support for employee training and as an innovative new measure there will be support towards wage costs whilst training is underway. The scheme will be flexible, designed to meet the needs of individual businesses and sector clusters, such as supply chains.

Up to £2000 training costs and £2000 of wage support will be available per employee. (De Minimus rules apply)

The first phase during January to March 2009 will be treated as a pilot with the automotive sector in Wales having a priority status.
