We develop your people. We empower your business.

We email your personalised two-page report within two working days. It outlines internal training capacity, an indicative annual internal training subsidy estimate and a suggested next step. The figure is total theoretical potential, not necessarily additional to subsidies already used. External training is excluded and may attract further support after separate assessment, subject to scheme conditions and remaining aid allowance. You can then choose a discovery call to discuss the report. If you decide to proceed, we agree the scope, fees, responsibilities and timetable before any paid work begins. The assessment is free, creates no obligation to proceed and does not confirm eligibility, approval or payment.

No. The HRDA Utilisation Plan is LDGrow’s structured planning and implementation template. It records the relevant possibilities, key conditions, priorities and agreed actions and provides the basis for implementing the work within the defined scope. It is not an approval, decision or official HRDA document.

Yes, we also help employers already using HRDA schemes. We review existing training and administration to identify gaps, missed eligible support and steps that can be simplified. We align internal and external programmes with suitable schemes, improve coordination and manage submissions and follow-up. Any additional support is assessed against the relevant scheme conditions and remaining aid allowance.

Yes. LDGrow can act as your external learning and development partner, with expertise in HRDA subsidies. We help you structure training, develop internal capability and manage the agreed HRDA work, from ERMIS readiness and applications to delivery coordination, final submissions and subsidy follow-up. The scope is agreed around your priorities and the support your team needs.

Yes. Our core service is staff training and development through suitable HRDA schemes. As a complementary service, we can also support relevant HRDA hiring and workplace-training schemes for graduates, unemployed candidates and other eligible groups, where these fit the organisation’s needs.

Where training is part of the agreed solution, its design, coordination and delivery are integrated into implementation of the HRDA Utilisation Plan or Training Analysis and Funding Alignment. The same service can also be commissioned independently. Training may be delivered by experienced employees within the organisation, by LDGrow through suitably qualified or certified trainers, or by specialist external providers. We also support internal trainer approval and certification in line with the relevant scheme’s requirements. The most appropriate approach depends on the subject matter, the organisation’s needs and the requirements of the relevant scheme. Where different or more specialist expertise is required, LDGrow recommends and coordinates suitable providers.

Every organisation has a different starting point, size, structure, level of experience and degree of complexity. A smaller business may need a practical HRDA Utilisation Plan and support with its first programmes. A larger organisation may require comprehensive Training Analysis and Funding Alignment, multi-programme planning, cross-departmental coordination and ongoing management. The level of support increases only where it adds genuine value.

We agree the preparation fee and commission rate before work begins, based on the scope, workload, complexity and responsibilities involved. Company size is considered insofar as it affects the work required. We start with a small preparation fee. Our main fee is a commission on subsidies you actually receive under HRDA schemes managed by LDGrow. The preparation fee is deducted in full from that commission. If no subsidy is received, no success commission is due. The preparation fee covers completed preparation and is retained for that work. Standalone services without a subsidy carry an agreed fixed fee.

During the free assessment, we only need basic information about the organisation, workforce, current experience with HRDA schemes, ERMIS status, training already taking place and any recruitment plans. Where an engagement proceeds, we provide a focused list of the documents and information required for the specific service or programme. We do not request more personal data than is necessary for the relevant process.

No. Eligibility, approval and payment depend on the conditions of the relevant scheme, the accuracy and completeness of the information, timely submission and correct implementation. LDGrow assesses the relevant possibilities, structures the process properly and supports the organisation through to completion. No assessment, estimate or proposal constitutes a guarantee of approval or payment.
