Benefits for your business
Multiply courses can:
- increase employee confidence with numbers and encourage them to use their numeracy skills at work
- reduce numeracy related mistakes at work, and boost productivity, increase profits and improve employee retention
- motivate employees to pursue different forms of training that may benefit the business in the future
Cost
All courses and offers included in the scheme are fully funded by the government.
Courses can be delivered flexibly to limit pressures on any existing commitments you may have as an employer.
Your responsibilities
Multiply does not require a work placement and you do not need to contribute to the training.
You may need to encourage your employees to participate.
Your employees can take a short quiz to assess their numeracy skills and help them find the right course for them.
