For applications submitted from 1 January 2027, training can no longer be funded through the KMO-portefeuille. In 2026, applications remain possible, but only as long as VLAIO&#8217;s annual budget has not run out. We expect the remaining Flemish budget to be used up quickly.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div style=\"background: white; border: 1px solid #e5e7eb; border-radius: 12px; padding: 25px; margin-bottom: 25px; box-shadow: 0 3px 10px rgba(0,0,0,0.05);\">\n<h2 style=\"color: #0f172a; margin: 0 0 10px;\">Can I still get support for a course in 2027?<\/h2>\n<p style=\"margin: 0;\">Yes. If you submit your application in 2026, you can also use it to fund a course that only takes place in 2027. You can then complete your programme up to and including 31 December 2027. This applies to all our courses, including the Stay Tuned subscriptions.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div style=\"background: #fff7ed; border: 1px solid #fdba74; border-left: 5px solid #ea580c; border-radius: 12px; padding: 20px 22px; margin-bottom: 25px;\">\n<h2 style=\"color: #0f172a; margin: 0 0 10px;\">What should you do now?<\/h2>\n<ol style=\"padding-left: 20px; margin: 0 0 12px;\">\n<li style=\"margin-bottom: 8px;\">Check which courses you or your team are planning, this year and next.<\/li>\n<li style=\"margin-bottom: 8px;\">Book them as soon as possible.<\/li>\n<li>Submit your subsidy application through VLAIO&#8217;s KMO-portefeuille straight afterwards.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p style=\"margin: 12px 0 0;\">If your organisation can make use of the KMO-portefeuille, part of your course fee is refunded as long as the current scheme applies.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div style=\"background: white; border: 1px solid #e5e7eb; border-radius: 12px; padding: 25px; margin-bottom: 25px; box-shadow: 0 3px 10px rgba(0,0,0,0.05);\">\n<h2 style=\"color: #0f172a; margin: 0 0 10px;\">Register now<\/h2>\n<p style=\"margin: 0 0 12px;\">Explore our courses and register: <a style=\"color: #1d4ed8; text-decoration: underline; font-weight: 600;\" href=\"https:\/\/www.dp-institute.eu\/en\/study-guide\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Study Guide<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p style=\"margin: 0;\">Unsure about your application?
