Steps to follow

Step 1SMEs register on the platform. Allocations are made on a first-come, first-served basis. They submit a declaration in which they fill in their company details, the details of their legal representative, tick the program (s) of interest and declare that they meet the eligibility conditions.

Step 2The RDA starts checking the registered applications, in order, and the selected SMEs will provide documents proving that they meet the eligibility conditions.

Step 3After the selection of SMEs, the RDA will publish the contracted training providers and the list of training programs on the platform. From that moment on, each SME will select the provider and the program (s) to which they want to send their employees.

Step 4The training process is underway and will be completed by December 2025.

Funding is in the form of de minimis aid. This means that the amount requested for the project and other de minimis aid received in the last 3 years (e.g. Rabla, Environmental Vouchers, Electric Up etc) must not exceed €200,000 (for any industry) or €100,000 for transport.
