The Heritage Lottery Fund 
has announced that the new Skills for the Future programme is now open to applications. This is a new £5million grant programme that will deliver up to 1,000 paid training opportunities for people across the UK seeking a career in heritage.
It will not only support traditional conservation training but also a
wide variety of skills needed to engage people with heritage and
utilise new media and technology. The programme is open to applications
from organisations and partnerships – for example of community and
voluntary organisations, professional bodies and learning and training
providers and will provide grants of between £100,000 and £1 million
for projects which provide paid training placements to meet a skills
gap in the heritage sector, and fully support trainees to learn
practical skills. The closing date for applications
is the 19th March 2010.
