Subsidies

Flanders (VLAIO): SME (kmo) portfolio

The SME portfolio is a measure that gives you, as an entrepreneur, financial support for purchasing services that improve the quality of your business. Specifically, these are training and consultancy services. Vinçotte Academy is a registered service provider for the themes "job-specific competencies" and "digitization - cyber security". Small enterprises receive 30% support, medium-sized enterprises 20%. The maximum annual support ceiling is €7,500.

We advise you to apply for your subsidy immediately as soon as you register or place an order. The registration amount (excl. VAT) can be found on our website or in the confirmation email of your registration. You therefore do not have to wait for your invoice. Subsidy applications submitted later than 14 days after the start of the course are no longer eligible!

More information can be found on the SME portfolio website. The Vinçotte Academy number to complete your application is DV.O104637.

Our e-learnings are not eligible for the SME (KMO) portfolio subsidy. There is no interaction with the instructor.
