JOINT TRAINING SCHEME

Under this scheme, a few employers can jointly appoint a training provider to conduct a particular programme for their employees. One of the employers will act as the ‘organiser’, responsible in determining the type of training programme required, selecting the suitable training provider, determining the training venue and the training costs.

The training costs incurred will be shared equally by the participating employers based on the total number of participants. The number of trainees from the ‘organising employer’ must not exceed 50% of the total number of participants. The ‘organising employer’ is entitled to claim the ‘allowable costs’ at the rate of 100%, whilst, other participating employers will be reimbursed based on the current rate of financial assistance. Only the “organisingemployer” is entitled to claim the cost of consumable training materials.
