"Funding wizard" arrives via Skills for Justice

Lawyers who want to develop the skills of their staff can now access advice, guidance and research through Skills for Justice.

The Sector Skills Council for Legal Services has launched a membership scheme offering exclusive access to business resources and project support. It is offering members access to “Funding Wizard”, a database of grants, loans, awards and bursaries, as well as project-management support and workplace research.

Skills for Justice director, Amanda Ryalls said they had revised their membership scheme “to reflect more closely the products that employers have told us they would value”.
