SCA Training provides high value/low cost training and development services to charities, voluntary organisations, businesses, social enterprises and statutory organisations. Our programme provides individuls with the skills to enable them to do their jobs more effectively and provides organisations with the opportunity to strengthen their capacity for effectiveness and delivery.

In the past these serevices have been available at minimal cost to people working in the Surrey voluntary sector due to funding from the European Social Fund and Learning & Skills Council. This funding has ended and these organisations can now apply for bursaries to subsidise the costs to them. The award of a bursary will depend on the organisation meeting the eligibility criteria and on the availability of funds at the time.
