Overview
The ESFA’s funding rules should be seen as ‘the bible’ for any organisation delivering apprenticeship training and receiving government funding for doing so, therefore understanding, and complying with them, remains of critical importance.
FY22-23 sees significant changes including the introduction of a new OTJT ‘baseline’ and a significant change in the recognition of RPL with the directive for the use of a new formulaic approach to discounting the funding band value to account for apprentices’ prior knowledge, skills and behaviours.
This session will also cover the most recent changes and clarifications in version 2 (published October 2022).
The session will also touch on wider related guidance documents for off-the-job training, initial assessment and additional learning support.
