The JGA Group receives funding from various bodies in the UK, including the Learning and Skills Council (LSC), Jobcentre Plus, and various nextstep partnerships. JGA has also received funding from the European Social Fund (ESF).

This funding is received from one or more of these bodies as part of contracts to deliver specific training in specific areas. For example, a contract from the LSC may require delivery of 150 NVQs in Business and Administration at Level 3 in London.

As the demand for training in the UK develops and moves from sector to sector, these funding bodies adjust their requirements. Therefore, the services that JGA can provide for free or at a discounted rate are constantly changing.
