Employers who utilize HRD Corp grants should take note of these changes to avoid disruptions to their training schedules.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Key Changes Effective 15 June 2026<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">1. Earlier Planning is Required<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Employers must now obtain training grant approval at least <strong>14 calendar days before the training date<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This means last-minute grant applications will no longer be feasible. Organizations are encouraged to plan their training schedules well in advance to ensure sufficient time for grant approval.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">2. Approved Grants Can No Longer Be Modified<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Once a training grant has been approved, amendments are no longer permitted.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Changes to the following details will require the cancellation of the approved grant and submission of a new application:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Training title<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Venue<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Trainer<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Training dates<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Training time<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Training structure<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Training mode<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">As such, employers should ensure all submitted information is complete and accurate before applying.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">3. Introduction of a 24-Hour Approval Window<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">HRD Corp has implemented a <strong>24-hour approval window<\/strong> for grant applications, subject to the submission timing:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Applications submitted before 5:00 PM on a working day: Approval within the same day.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Applications submitted after 5:00 PM or on non-working days: Approval window begins on the next working day.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Weekends and public holidays are excluded from the approval period.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What Should Employers Do?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">To avoid delays or complications, employers are advised to:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u2714 Submit training grant applications early.<br>\u2714 Ensure all application details are complete and accurate.<br>\u2714 Confirm training dates, venues, and trainers in advance.<br>\u2714 Plan training schedules well ahead of time.<br>\u2714 Build in buffer time for unforeseen changes, as grant modifications are no longer allowed after approval.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Final Thoughts<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">With these changes taking effect on <strong>15 June 2026<\/strong>, employers should review their training planning processes and adjust their timelines accordingly. Early preparation and accurate submissions will be key to ensuring smooth grant approvals and uninterrupted training initiatives.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Effective 15 June 2026, HRD Corp has introduced new rules for Training Grant (Levy) applications, aimed at improving planning and streamlining the grant approval process.
