The ESFA have announced that as set out in the adult education budget (AEB) funding and performance-management rules, you can request a maximum allocation of £25,000 for 19 to 24 traineeships if you had an AEB contract for the 2018 to 2019 funding year and have not been issued with a 19 to 24 traineeships allocation because you have not delivered traineeships historically. Requests must be submitted using the ESFA online form by Friday 6 December 2019. You need to include your rationale and how much you are requesting on the form. They have stated that they will not consider any requests from providers who did not have an AEB contract for the 2018 to 2019 funding year. If you have any queries, you can use the ESFA online form.
