£2.85 Million Support Programme to Explore Technology in Adult Vocational Learning (UK)

Ufi VocTech Trust has launched a £2.85 million funding and support programme to help small organisations explore how technology could improve vocational learning for UK-based adults aged 16 and over.

The Together Support Programme is for organisations that help adults gain work-related skills, have a clear vocational learning problem, and want to explore how technology could help address it. It is particularly aimed at small, resource-constrained organisations.

Up to 40 organisations will join a 10-week programme offering expert-led sessions, peer learning and one-to-one mentoring.

Participants will be supported to:

  • Clearly define the skills challenges facing your learners
  • Explore and compare relevant technology options
  • Test ideas in a low-risk way
  • Develop a clear, evidence-informed plan for next steps

Those who successfully complete the programme will receive funding of up to £10,000 to support staff time and related costs.

Eligible applicants include charities, trade bodies, learning providers, employers, private companies, community interest companies and other not-for-profit organisations.

Applications open on 6 July 2026 and close on 20 July 2026. Decisions are expected in early September, with the first support programme webinar taking place on 28 September 2026.
