Question

To ask the Scottish Government how many training places it has provided for adults interested in careers in the social care sector through the National Transition Training Fund.


Answer

The National Transition Training Fund was operational from October 2020 until August 2022. Within this period 885 training places were made available across a number of projects focused on social care. This number excludes college data from the 2021-22 academic year as this data is included within official Further Education Statistics (FES) due to be published in February. A report on the second and final year of NTTF will be published following the publication of FES data, and the college data will be included in the final published report.
