Enhanced Learning Credit

The MOD's Enhanced Learning Credits Scheme is an initiative to promote lifelong learning amongst members of the Armed Forces. Serving and retired members of HM Armed Forces must have joined the scheme and have accumulated enough eligible service before making a claim. The ELC scheme provides financial support in the form of a single up-front payment in each of a maximum of three separate financial years. ELCs are available in two tiers: the Lower Tier has a level of up to £1,000 per annum and the Upper Tier a level of up to £2,000 per annum.

MFC is an Approved Learning Provider (No 1155) under the ELC Scheme for those wishing to train for the flying qualifications listed in our Courses section above. Find Out More
