Register for a national professional qualification (NPQ)

Use this service to:

• check if you’re eligible for DfE scholarship funding
• register for an NPQ or the Early headship coaching offer

We’ll send your registration to your chosen course provider. They’ll contact you to complete their application form.

Being eligible for funding does not guarantee a funded place

Your training provider must confirm two things after you apply with them:

• a funded place is available
• you meet their suitability requirements for the course

Before you start

To check your funding eligibility, you’ll need:

• the NPQ course you want to take and the provider you’ll use
• the address of your workplace
• an Ofsted URN (if working in early years or childcare)
