Adult Learning Grant

The Adult Learning Grant (ALG) website provides you with everything you need to promote and administer ALG.

ALG provides financial help for adult learners (19+) working toward their first full Level 2 or Level 3 qualification. It's worth up to £30 a week and is paid on an income-assessed basis using the learner's income and, where applicable, their partner's.

Our dedicated helpline for providers involved in delivering ALG is available to give further advice and guidance on application and administrative queries. Please call 0845 600 7979. 

Other forms of support

The Learner Support team at the YPLA also manages other schemes which support learners to return to education and training. You can find more information about those on our main site.
