Grant call for skills partnership in hydrogen fuel cell tech – British Council

Grant call for skills partnership in hydrogen fuel cell tech – British Council

The British Council is inviting suitably qualified UK further education colleges or training organisations to apply for two exciting international skills partnerships in South Africa. 

This is an excellent opportunity for organisations looking to build a network and capacity to work internationally. The successful UK organisations will collaborate with Northern Cape Rural TVET College and Nkangala TVET College in South Africa, with a focus on the renewable energy sector, in particular, hydrogen fuel cell technology. Successful applicants will be eligible for £25,000 of grant funding to support partnership activities (reciprocal visits to the UK and South Africa, staff time – limited to 30% of the grant – and development of tools and resources, etc).

The UK and South African partners will share knowledge and expertise on curriculum development and employer engagement in the area of clean energy technologies, in particular, hydrogen fuel cell technology, and will collaborate to deliver a jointly developed action plan. The successful UK institution will have demonstrable experience in curriculum development and a training offer in hydrogen fuel cell technology as part of their broader engineering, renewable energy, or sustainable technology programmes.

The British Council teams in the UK and in South Africa will provide ongoing advice and guidance throughout the partnership to help facilitate communication and deliver maximum benefit.  

The project will run for a duration of 12 months from March 2025.
