AI Thread Summary
Seeking employer sponsorship for progression from an electrical HNC to HND can offer several benefits for the employer beyond having more skilled staff. In the UK, employers may be eligible for government grants or financial incentives to support employee training and development. Resources like the Construction Industry Training Board (CITB) provide information on available grants, which can help offset training costs. Engaging with specific UK government agencies or training organizations can yield additional insights into potential funding opportunities. Sharing experiences from others in similar situations can also provide valuable guidance on navigating this process.

A couple of Google searches turned up very little useful information, and I was wondering if any of you have been in a similar situation.
I am in the UK.
Thanks in advance for any information.
