The Jumpstart scheme pays either the course fees or a grant towards the cost of tuition for any member of Sheffield Hallam University staff (Grade 5 or below, who meets the agreed criteria for eligibility) who wishes to learn a skill or study a subject unrelated to his/her area of work.
Over the last academic year 70 out of 93 applications were approved. The deadline for the next round of applications is Friday 30 August. The applications will be considered at the next Jumpstart committee meeting on 5 September.
