How it Works:

  • Staff complete the training with an approved provider (like us)
  • You submit a reimbursement claim to NHS England
  • Funding is released to cover your training costs
  • This means quality training doesn't have to stretch your budget

We Can Help:

Navigating funding applications can be confusing. We're here to help you understand eligibility criteria, what costs are covered, how to submit claims, required documentation, and timeline for reimbursement.

  • Trainer fees
  • Venue costs
  • Staff time (in some cases)
  • Training materials

Funding Support for Oliver McGowan Mandatory Training

Oliver McGowan Mandatory Training is supported by national funding, helping organisations meet their legal obligations without placing unnecessary strain on budgets.

For adult social care providers, training costs are reimbursable through the Learning and Development Support Scheme (LDSS), which includes ring-fenced funding specifically for Oliver McGowan Mandatory Training. In many cases, this can significantly reduce—or even cover—the cost of Tier 2 training. Lynx Training Academy will support you to understand your eligibility, navigate the funding process and submit claims, ensuring you maximise what's available.

We believe high-quality, co-produced training should be accessible, affordable and sustainable. Funding should enable better learning, not be a barrier to it.

Officially Approved & Quality Assured

Lynx Training Academy delivers Oliver McGowan Mandatory Training through trainers officially listed on the NHS England OMMT Approved Provider and Trainer Register. This national approval confirms that all training is delivered by recognised, quality-assured professionals who meet government and CQC expectations.

Because our trainers are officially approved, organisations gain credible, verifiable evidence that training has been delivered in line with national standards—something commissioners and regulators actively look for.

We also support organisations to map and evidence training outcomes, helping demonstrate learning impact, service improvement and compliance through PIRs and inspections. This added layer of assurance strengthens governance, quality control and regulatory confidence.
