Description

Data collected in the learning event funding and monitoring entity is used to identify additional attributes of the learning event that will either inform funding of the learner or additional monitoring.

Applicable toEngland
Coverage

Instances at providers in England where Instance.FESTUMK = 1, 3 or 4 and Instance.REDUCEDI = 00 or 01.

Notes

The LearningDeliveryFAM.LEARNDELFAMTYPE identifies the type of data to be collected and is recorded with an associated FAM code. Both a LearningDeliveryFAM.LEARNDELFAMTYPE and LearningDeliveryFAM.LEARNDELFAMCODE are required for this data to be unique.

If the LearningDeliveryFAM entity is returned then both the LearningDeliveryFAM.LEARNDELFAMTYPE and LearningDeliveryFAM.LEARNDELFAMCODE must be recorded.

The following table shows the requirement for this field:

Source of funding Max no. of occurrences: 1

The source of funding identifies the organisation which has directly funded the learning aim and that passes funds directly to the provider. No attempt should be made to use this field to indicate sources beyond the one directly providing the funds.

The source of funding is closely linked to the funding model recorded for an aim. The following table gives an indication of the most likely code combination between the Funding model and Source of funding codes.

FUNDMODEL Source of funding
10 Always 105
25 Usually 107 (see Provider support manual for further details)
35 Always 105
70 Always 105
81 Always 105
82 Always 107
99 Any code except 105 or 107 if applicable

Other sources of funding

  • If Instance.FUNDMODEL is completed with code 99 (No Skills Funding Agency or Education Funding Agency (EFA) funding for this learning aim) then this field must not contain codes 105 (Skills Funding Agency) or 107 (EFA).
  • Code 108 should be used to record funding from the Skills Funding Agency (for Community Learning) that is paid through local authorities.
  • If the learning aim is financed by a 24+ Advanced learning loan, this field is not required and should not be returned.
  • If the learner or employer is paying the full cost of the learning aim, this field is not required and should not be returned.

Full or Co-funding indicator (FFI) Max no. of occurrences: 1

This field is collected for Instance.FUNDMODEL = 35.

LearningDeliveryFAM.LEARNDELFAMCODE = 1 should be used where the learning aim is fully funded by the Skills Funding Agency.

Code 2 should be used where the learning aim is co-funded by the Skills Funding Agency.

If the learning aim does not attract any funding from the Skills Funding Agency, this should not be returned.

This field is not collected for learning aims which are funded by Other Skills Funding Agency funding (Instance.FUNDMODEL = 81).

Workplace learning Max no. of occurrences: 1

This field is collected when Instance.FUNDMODEL = 35, where applicable.

This should be used to indicate that the learner is undertaking workplace learning as defined in the Skills Funding Agency funding documentation.

Eligibility for Enhanced Apprenticeship funding (EEF) Max no. of occurrences: 1

This field is collected for Instance.FUNDMODEL = 35 or 81, where applicable.

Code 2 should be used where the learner is re-starting a programme on or after their 19th birthday but is entitled to 16 - 18 funding due to a break in learning (LearningDeliveryFAM.LEARNDELFAMTYPE = ALN).

If code 2 is recorded in this field, then code 1 'Fully funded' must be recorded in the Full/co-funding indicator field (LearningDeliveryFAM.LEARNDELFAMTYPE = FFI).

If the learner started an Apprenticeship programme aged 18 and then started one of the learning aims within that programme aged 19+, this field is not required.

Code 3 should be used where the learner is re-starting a programme on or after their 25th birthday but is entitled to 19-24 funding due to a break in learning. If code 3 is recorded in this field, then code 2 'Co-funded' must be recorded in the Full/co-funding indicator field. (LearningDeliveryFAM.LEARNDELFAMTYPE = FFI).

Restart indicator (RES) Max no. of occurrences: 1

This should be used to indicate that the learner has re-started a learning aim or Apprenticeship programme. It should only be used if the learner has transferred from another provider or has had a break in learning.

If the learner has re-started the entire Apprenticeship programme then the re-start indicator should be recorded against the programme aim and all the learning aims within the programme. If only one of the aims within the programme has been re-started then the Restart indicator is only recorded against that aim.

Where a learner has already undertaken some of the learning towards an Adult Skills funded or Other Skills Funding Agency funded aim and is restarting it then the Funding adjustment for prior learning field should be used to reduce the amount of funding claimed as applicable.

Learning support funding (LSF) Max no. of occurrences: unbounded

This field is collected when Instance.FUNDMODEL = 35 and Instance.AIMTYPE = 1, 4 or 3 where applicable; or where Instance.FUNDMODEL = 81 and Instance.AIMTYPE = 1 or 4 where applicable.

This field must be completed by all providers for Adult Skills Budget funded learning (Instance.FUNDMODEL = 35) aims where learning support funding is being claimed.

See the Skills Funding Agency funding documentation for further details about learning support funding and evidence requirements.

For programmes funded by the Adult Skills Budget funding model, this information is recorded only on the programme aim. If the Traineeship programme aim is closed and there is a continuing component aim, then the Learning support funding must be recorded on the continuing component aim, AimType = 3. See the Traineeship section in the Provider Support manual for further details.

In addition to recording this Funding and monitoring type for this learning aim, the Learning Delivery Funding and Monitoring Date applies from and Date applies to fields must also be completed.

If the learner’s LSF status changes during their learning, a new Learning Delivery Funding and Monitoring record for LSF should be created detailing the date that it applies from and to. The learning aim record remains unchanged. See the Provider Support manual for further details and examples.

24+ Advanced learning loan indicator (ADL) Max no. of occurrences: 1

This field is collected when Instance.AIMTYPE = 1 or 4 where applicable.

This should be used to indicate that the learning aim is financed by a 24+ Advanced Learning Loan.

For this learning aim Instance.FUNDMODEL should be completed with 'No Skills Funding Agency or EFA funding', code 99.

If the learning aim is sub-contracted out to another provider, the 24+ Advanced Learning Loan indicator should only be returned by the lead provider who receives the funding from the Student Loan Company and not by the provider delivering the provision.

24+ Advanced learning loan indicator (ALB) Max no. of occurrences: unbounded

This field is collected when financed by a 24+ Advanced Learning Loan (ADL1) and Instance.AIMTYPE = 1 or 4 where applicable.
