description
| 3.4 | In May 2017 the system for the funding and procurement of apprenticeship training changed with the introduction of the Apprenticeship Levy, which requires public sector employers with a pay bill over £3 million each year to make an investment in apprenticeships (0.5% of their annual pay bill). |
| 3.5 | Employers will access the funds through a Digital Apprenticeship Account (DAA) controlled by the Education and Skills Funding Agency (ESFA). The DAA is hosted on a system known as the digital Apprenticeship Service (AS). Each levy-paying employer has a virtual account equivalent in value to its contribution, minus an amount equivalent to the notional contribution for its employees that live in Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland, plus a government top-up of 10%. |
| 3.6 | Funds in the Digital Account can only be used to cover the cost of apprenticeship training and end point assessment for apprenticeships undertaken in England. To access the funds employers will need to show, through the AS, that it has a contract for the delivery of a recognised apprenticeship, by a registered provider. For these purposes a registered provider is a training provider that appears on the ESFA Register of Apprenticeship Training Providers (RoATP). Recognised apprenticeships must be approved by the Institute for Apprenticeships, or SASE Frameworks. Apprenticeship standards and framework are assigned a funding band maximum, above which the ESFA will not contribute to the cost of the training. |
| 3.7 | The aim of this procurement is to contract with a Supplier of level 3 and level 4 business administration. |
| 3.8 | The successful supplier is to provide ongoing support to the apprentice beyond the contract term until the apprentiship is completed up to a period of 5 years. |
