SFC Upskilling Project

SFC Upskilling Project

The University of Glasgow’s SFC Upskilling Project facilitates three Portfolios of skills-focussed, demand-led CPD courses annually, with the aim of supporting employees and employers across Scotland to upskill and reskill in response to present-day economic challenges. In particular, the project aims to address skills gaps, unemployment issues and other health and economic adversities following the COVID-19 pandemic and EU exit. 

The SFC Upskilling Project offers fully funded places to learners through the SFC University Upskilling Fund. 

Over 5.6 thousand learners have benefitted from the SFC Upskilling Project since its launch in 2020, with many proceeding into further study and employment as a result of their improved skillsets and newly acquired Academic Credits.
