Levy Transfers

Created

Good afternoon, 

We are a levy paying employer, but also a main provider. We deliver training to a levy paying employer, who on occasion drops into co-investment. 

We may look at transferring some of our levy funds to them (I am aware that we can not deliver the training for the learners who will be funded through transfers), however we still have learners on programme who are funded normally. 

If we transfer, will the transfer funds be used to keep the employer out of co-investment, meaning that by default we will be delivering the training! 

Any advice would be great! 

Thank you.

Not sure payments from DAS works in the way you require.

Employers receiving transferred funds will only be able to use them to pay for training and assessment for new apprenticeship starts only that you are unable to provide training for (transferred funds ring fenced for these learners only). As DAS prioritises any apprentices funded through a transfer on the apprenticeship service before any non-transfers then there would still be a co-investment requirement as the transferred funds cannot be used to fund the non-transferred Apprentices you deliver training to.

HTH.
