ILA Funding

ILA Scotland is a Scottish Executive scheme which helps you pay for learning that you can do at a time, place, pace and in a way to suit you. If you are over 18 and living in Scotland, you could get up to £200 towards the cost of learning new skills with an individual learning account from ILA Scotland.

If you earn £22,000 a year or less, or you are on benefits you could get £200 a year towards the cost of learning. ILA Scotland will pay up to £200 a year towards your learning.

How you choose to spend it is up to you – you might want to put it towards the cost of a single course or you can use it to help pay for several smaller courses throughout the year.

ILA Scotland funds are available on a first come first served basis so it is a good idea to book your course, or courses, as soon as possible. The money is not a loan and you don’t have to pay it back.
