Professional career development loan
A Professional and Career Development Loan could
help you pay for learning that enhances your job
skills and career prospects. It’s a bank loan, so you’ll
have to pay it back once you’ve left your course,
however you don’t pay interest for the period when
you’re in learning. You can borrow between £300
and £10,000 interest free while you’re studying and
once you’ve finished studying you pay it back in the
normal way. Contact your local bank to find out
more or find out more at the Directgov website
