Community investments

We change peoples lives through skills, thanks to our various charitable programmes and investments.

We reinvest our surplus to support skills development programmes and charitable activities that help people develop their skills.

Bursary programme

Since 1999, we’ve given financial support to people who wish to pursue our qualifications but can’t afford it. We award bursaries to more than 100 people each year, so individuals can improve their lives by developing their skills.

Charity partners

We contribute to the work of numerous charities, particularly those that share our dedication to helping people progress and develop.

Skills Development Fund

Our £5m Skills Development Fund invests in projects that create long-term, sustainable change by improving skills across the world. The projects we fund must demonstrate measureable impact and lasting benefits to skills development.
