The Cyprus Human Resources Development Authority (CDA) informs about the revision of the provisions of the Policy and Procedures Guide (Guide) for the "Multi-enterprise Training Programmes - Customary" Scheme, which will come into force from 1 August 2023 for programmes starting from 1 January 2024 onwards.
The revisions to the provisions of the Plan relate primarily to the following:
1. Removal of the parameter relating to the level of the training programme for calculating the maximum grant amount.
The hourly allowance per participant is set at €20 for all programmes under the Plan.
The total maximum hourly allowance for each programme is calculated as follows: hourly allowance per participant (€20) x number of participants.

3. Increase of the maximum duration of a training programme from one hundred (100) to one hundred and fifty (150) hours.
4. Approval of short, medium and long duration training programs based on the new/revised Lifelong Learning Instructor Standard - Level 5 SEP/CyQF/EQF for the training of instructors aimed at certifying participants at level 5.
5. Approval of training programmes for refresher training in relation to first aid and defibrillator knowledge.
6. Subsidizing the participation of individuals in programs for the purpose of periodic training for renewal of professional license or renewal of competency certificates.

Possibility to implement a traineeship in a non-certified VET institution, subject to the approval of the ANAD, when it is required to be carried out in a specialised laboratory for which there is no certified VET institution.
