According to sector skills council People 1st, the money will come on the back of £100 million already agreed with the announcement of the National Skills Academy meaning Gordon Brown's government's total fund to improve training stands at £212 million.
The council's chief executive, Brian Wisdom, said an increasing number of firms are realising the need to invest in the best staff.
