Sub-contracting in apprenticeships

Created

Hi everyone,

If we were to use people that are self-employed as assessor/IQA  for our apprenticeships - does this fall under the funding rules definition of sub-contracting?

Many thanks

Tracey

Complicated area but basically is ok as long as they are under your control, as in they attend standardisation meetings and act in the way of an employee following all your instructions and it is only them that do the work.

Thanks Tracy

That does help,

I know this is a really tricky area , but yes they would be treated as if working for us as our own staff.

Try to avoid the organisation using any learning materials with their branding on as this could imply it’s subcontracting.

And payment should be similar to a HPL and not a % of the funding.
