EFA - Funding

Hi Bill Smith,

As it is a withdrawal you should not change the hours for any aims that have started - aims yet to begin should be removed.

From Memory if they are in learning on the 42nd day then you will receive funding for the learner @ 50% of the funding band from the GLH and EEP hours returned.

If you amend the record, generate an ILR and stick it through the FIS/HUB the reports output will confirm if you are getting paid or not.

NOTE: - From an audit perspective this learner will appear on the PDSAT for learners withdrawing in and around qualifying period so make sure you have evidence of first and last attendance to back up the claim.

The funding calculations rational for the 42 qualifying period is: the learner’s actual number of days this funding year >= the learner’s qualifying period in days.

So, they would have met the requirement for funding.

Hi Bill

It will generate funding for a withdrawal on day 42 but you will need to consider the following:

From the ILR Spec regarding start date

• It is sufficient for the date held in this field to be accurate to within a week, providing that any approximation does not result in a learner being wrongly included or excluded in the funding calculations.
