ReAct Funding
The Redundancy Action Scheme (ReAct) is a programme of funding for training provided by the Welsh Government for people living in Wales who are facing redundancy.
You can receive a training award of up to £1,500 to help you get the skills you need to land a job. You can train while you are job hunting or you can go on courses to get the skills you need even if you plan to become self-employed eventually.
Who is eligible?
Support under the ReAct scheme is available for individuals who have become unemployed in the last 3 months as a result of redundancy, are currently unemployed, and who have not been in continuous employment for 6 weeks or more since being made redundant; or
What is available?
There are 3 elements to ReAct:
Recruitment & Training Support
Discretionary Award – Vocational Training
Discretionary Award – Extra Support
Support is available for eligible applicants to increase their skills and remove barriers to learning, or returning to work. In order to ensure that this training provides the best possible chance of finding new employment, all applicants will need to have their training needs assessed by Careers Wales. Careers Wales will also advise on suitable training courses and training venues.
Under this part of the scheme the following financial support is available:
Individual Resettlement Training Costs
IRTC – Individual Resettlement Training Costs
If you intend to leave the Armed Forces within two years, you will be entitled to a grant of £534 that can be used towards the cost of training courses for your own personal development. You can also use this grant in conjunction with ELCs, either as payment towards the cost of a course, or to finance your personal contribution.
For more information on IRTCs and how to claim, you can read section 4 of your JSP 534 Tri-Service Resettlement Manual.
IRTCs can be used in conjunction with ELCs.
SLC – Standard Learning Credits
The Standard Learning Credits (SLC) scheme allows military personnel to claim up to £175 per financial year as contributions towards training and personal development costs.
SLCs can be used in conjunction with IRTCs.
