ELCAS Training for Service Leavers

Funded Resettlement Training

Turn Your Service into a New Career with ELCAS

ELCAS (Enhanced Learning Credits Administration Service) helps service leavers fund training and gain new qualifications. With full entitlement, the MOD covers 80% of your course fees — you pay just 20%.

Use your ELCAS credits to retrain, requalify, and launch your civilian career in Haulage and Logistics.

As an approved ELCAS Learning Provider (System People Ltd, Provider ID 11328), SP Training delivers nationally recognised, MOD-approved qualifications for service leavers ready to move into high-demand industries.

What is ELCAS?

ELCAS is the administration service used by the Ministry of Defence to help fund service leavers further training to kickstart their new career. If you have a
full entitlement, the MOD will fund 80% (up to £2,000) of your new qualification, leaving only 20% to be paid for by the service leaver.

I will soon be leaving the 3rd regiment RHA (royal horse artillery) in the north east & I want to upgrade my class 2 licence to a class 1 and add driver CPC – using my ELCAS credits SP Training had the right courses to allow me to do so.

My family have a history in the transport industry, several members were drivers themselves and I’d like to follow the same path. I hope to further use my credits to add ADR dangerous goods to broaden my career opportunities once I leave the army.

SP Training were excellent, my trainer Dave has been great but all the other trainers and staff from the minute I arrived have made me feel comfortable and relaxed, this has really helped me with my training as I felt at ease. I was pleased to find the range of ELCAS approved courses on offer with SP Training as this isn’t the case nationally, I know of many more service leavers who have struggled to use their ELCAS credits to train to be a driver.

I left the army in 2015 after serving for 11 years in the 17 port & maritime regiment in Marchwood, near Southampton. I have been an LGV driver since but I found that SP Training recently added an ADR dangerous goods course that I could put my ELCAS credits towards, the only options nationally were Portsmouth and Carlisle, living in Bradford meant SP Training were the obvious choice.

The ADR qualification will create a career opportunity for me, if I’m successful next week I start my training with DHL to fulfil an international contract with formula one, transporting equipment worldwide and setting up for grand prix events.
