Progress for success

The main purpose of the Progress for Success programme is to increase the quality of provision accessed within the early years, childcare and play sector.

The programme intends to provide opportunities for existing practitioners to broaden their knowledge and skills and enhance the care, support and experience that they share with the children in their care.

Practitioners will have the opportunity to carry out their training in English, Welsh or bilingually (in English and Welsh).

For eligible individuals, this training will be fully funded by Welsh Government and the European Social Fund (ESF) and will be delivered on behalf of the Welsh Government by contracted Work Based Learning Providers.
