Apprenticeship Levy: DfE publishes revised guidance and funding proposals

The Department for Education has published the Government’s initial Proposals for apprenticeship funding in England from May 2017, along with an Apprenticeship funding bands tool and a spreadsheet of Apprenticeships approved for delivery. The DfE is seeking views from employers and providers on its initial proposals outlined here and, particularly, how they plan to adapt their hiring, training and development activities in response to these reforms. The DfE has also published updated guidance on the Apprenticeship levy: how it will work. Further information is available here.
