The funding has been awarded to the National Centre for Learning Welsh to continue its *Work Welsh* programme which began in April 2017\. The programme provides training and support ranging from information and advice for employers to online, intensive or residential courses for employees.

 More than 4,000 people in workplaces across Wales have participated in *Work Welsh* courses during this financial year, exceeding the targets set at the start of the programme. During the second year of the programme, a range of courses tailored to specific sectors, including health and social care and retail, will be developed. A programme of courses developed specifically for those working in childcare settings will also be delivered.

 Announcing the funding, the Minister said: 

 
> “BT Cymru Wales was the first private sector company to sign up to *Work Welsh*, which delivered a tailored programme of learning for colleagues at our offices in Swansea and Cardiff. The scheme has given colleagues an opportunity to both learn and improve their Welsh, gaining valuable confidence to use the language in the workplace.”

 Amongst the many organisations to have benefitted from *Work Welsh* are BT Cymru Wales and Ceredigion Council.

 Alwen Williams, director for BT Cymru Wales, said:

 
> “BT Cymru Wales was the first private sector company to sign up to *Work Welsh*, which delivered a tailored programme of learning for colleagues at our offices in Swansea and Cardiff. The scheme has given colleagues an opportunity to both learn and improve their Welsh, gaining valuable confidence to use the language in the workplace.”

 Ellen ap Gwynn, Leader of Ceredigion County Council, said:

 
> “The *Work Welsh* team worked closely with us to deliver fully\-funded, expert tuition with flexible learning options. The scheme has enabled us to both support employees’ professional development and fulfil a business need to provide bilingual services for our users.  We’re delighted with the results and look forward to continuing our Welsh language learning journey.”

 Efa Gruffudd Jones, Chief Executive of the National Centre for Learning Welsh, added:

 
> “We welcome this additional funding for *Work Welsh* which has already proved popular, delivering new opportunities for thousands of people across Wales to strengthen their Welsh language skills. We work closely with employers to adapt and tailor the scheme for different sectors and are able to offer appropriate training to meet a variety of business needs. There is a real demand, from both employers and employees, for the scheme and we look forward to introducing a range of new courses over the coming months.”

Rhoddwyd y cyllid i’r Ganolfan Dysgu Cymraeg Genedlaethol barhau â’i rhaglen *Cymraeg Gwaith* a ddechreuodd ym mis Ebrill 2017\. Mae’r rhaglen yn cynnig hyfforddiant a chymorth sy’n amrywio o wybodaeth a chyngor i gyflogwyr i gyrsiau ar\-lein, dwys neu breswyl i gyflogeion.

 Mae dros 4,000 o bobl mewn gweithleoedd ledled Cymru wedi cymryd rhan yng nghyrsiau *Cymraeg Gwaith* yn ystod y flwyddyn ariannol yma. Mae hyn gryn dipyn yn uwch na’r niferoedd targed ar ddechrau’r rhaglen. Yn ystod ail flwyddyn y rhaglen, bydd nifer o gyrsiau wedi’u teilwra i sectorau penodol, gan gynnwys iechyd a gofal cymdeithasol a manwerthu, yn cael eu datblygu. Bydd rhaglen o gyrsiau wedi’i datblygu’n benodol i’r bobl hynny sy’n gweithio mewn lleoliadau gofal plant yn cael ei chyflwyno hefyd.

 Gan gyhoeddi’r cyllid, dywedodd y Gweinidog: 

 
> “Mae cyrraedd miliwn o siaradwyr Cymraeg erbyn 2050 yn darged uchelgeisiol iawn ac er bod addysgu ein plant a’n pobl ifanc yn rhan bwysig iawn o’r cynllun, ni allwn ddibynnu arnyn nhw yn unig. Mae angen i oedolion ddatblygu sgiliau Cymraeg hefyd gan gynyddu’r defnydd o’r Gymraeg o fewn y gweithle ac ehangu’r gwasanaethau sydd ar gael drwy’r Gymraeg.”

 Ymhlith yr amryw sefydliadau sydd wedi elwa ar *Cymraeg Gwaith* y mae BT Cymru a Chyngor Ceredigion.

 Dywedodd Alwen Williams, cyfarwyddwr BT Cymru:

 
> “BT Cymru oedd y cwmni cyntaf yn y sector preifat i ymuno â rhaglen *Cymraeg Gwaith* a fu’n gyfrifol am gyflwyno rhaglen wedi’i theilwra i’n cydweithwyr yn ein swyddfeydd yn Abertawe a Chaerdydd. Mae’r cynllun wedi rhoi cyfle i’n cydweithwyr ddysgu a gwella eu Cymraeg gan fagu hyder hefyd i ddefnyddio’r iaith yn y gweithle.”

 Dywedodd Ellen ap Gwynn, Arweinydd Cyngor Sir Ceredigion:

 
> “Mae tîm *Cymraeg Gwaith* wedi gweithio’n agos â ni i gyflwyno hyfforddiant arbenigol ac opsiynau dysgu hyblyg sydd wedi’u hariannu’n llawn. Mae’r cynllun wedi’n galluogi ni i gefnogi datblygiad proffesiynol ein gweithwyr ac i ddiwallu angen busnes i ddarparu gwasanaethau dwyieithog i’n defnyddwyr. Rydyn ni wrth ein bodd â’r canlyniadau ac rydyn ni’n edrych ymlaen at barhau ar ein taith i ddysgu Cymraeg.”

 Ychwanegol Efa Gruffudd Jones, Prif Weithredwr y Ganolfan Dysgu Cymraeg Genedlaethol:

 
> “Rydyn ni’n croesawu’r arian ychwanegol yma ar gyfer *Cymraeg Gwaith* sydd eisoes wedi bod yn rhaglen boblogaidd ac wedi rhoi cyfleoedd o’r newydd i filoedd o bobl ledled Cymru wella eu sgiliau Cymraeg. Rydyn ni’n gweithio’n agos â chyflogwyr i addasu a theilwra’r cynllun i wahanol sectorau ac rydyn ni’n gallu cynnig hyfforddiant priodol i ddiwallu anghenion busnes amrywiol. Mae galw mawr gan gyflogwyr a gweithwyr fel ei gilydd am y cynllun ac edrychwn ymlaen at gyflwyno nifer o gyrsiau newydd dros y misoedd sydd i ddod.”
