EVERYTHING YOU NEED TO KNOW
Read the FAQ
Funding for training from KFS can be used by an employee employed under an employment contract or an employer who employs at least one worker under such a form (both companies and sole proprietorships). Unfortunately, employment based on a mandate contract (umowa zlecenie) or a specific-task contract (umowa o dzieło) does not qualify for funding.
In 2026, KFS has planned to allocate PLN 419,591,000 for training funding (including PLN 417,493,000 as the general pool dedicated directly to the activities of District Labor Offices, which distribute funds through recruitment rounds and reserves for employers).
A detailed expenditure plan broken down by voivodeships, along with current, nationwide spending priorities (which this year include artificial intelligence, digital competencies, and green skills), is available on the “Nationwide Spending Priorities in 2026” page: Ogólnopolskie priorytety wydatkowania w roku 2026.
