The Diamond Education Grant is now open for applications, offering financial support to women seeking to enter or return to the workforce or transition into growing industries by gaining new skills.
The grant prioritises women facing significant financial need or barriers to employment, with an average award of £1,000. Funding can be used for course fees or essential materials, such as books or equipment, but not for living expenses.
Applications are open to women who are permanent residents in eligible Federation countries, which includes the UK. Preference will be given to applicants aged 30 and over.
Grants are available for courses taking place during the academic year from September 2025 to June 2026. The funding is intended for one year only, with vocational courses receiving priority.
Applications must be submitted by 15 April 2025.
