Veterans’ Career Development Fund

Under this programme, the Armed Forces Covenant Fund Trust will award grants of up to £70,000 towards projects of up to two years in length that will enable Veterans and their families to enter stable long-term employment, by enabling them to pursue training and qualifications.

They are looking for projects that can be clear about the support that their project will offer, how many Veterans and their families will benefit and the outcomes that your project will deliver. Your project should enable Veterans and their families to access and achieve recognised qualifications that will support them to find employment that matches their skills and interests. This may include helping a cohort of Veterans to acquire a qualification, help them in achieving credits towards a significant qualification or assist them on a pathway towards a qualification which, with your organisation’s help, they can realistically pursue.
