Higher Apprenticeship and Degree Apprenticeship Funding Bands – Following liaison with other representative organisations, a letter has been sent to the Institute for Apprenticeships. The letter raises key questions regarding the purpose of and methodology for determining funding bands. A summary of the issues raised is available HERE.
The Institute for Apprenticeships has formed a provider panel to advise on the funding bands it has been asked to review by DfE. UVAC, following consultation with UUK, has nominated six HEI colleagues to serve as panel members.
