All

Annex 1 of the migration specification (Appendix B to the ILR Specification for 2011/12) has a mapping from A14 to the Learning Delivery FAM Type (FFI) and FAM Codes. This is available on our website at http://www.theia.org.uk/ilr/ilrdocuments/201112_ilrdetail.htm.

I hope that helps.

Anita posted on the forum topic Funding Model Code 46 in the group 2011/12 ILR – Discussion Area: 7 months, 2 weeks ago

The notes in the single ILR Specification are relevant where the MIS will be outputting XML files rather than flat files.

If the MIS is not able to output XML then the flat file ILR Specification should be followed to ensure the files are in the correct format to be converted into XML by [...]
Anita posted on the forum topic Funding Model Code 46 in the group 2011/12 ILR – Discussion Area: 7 months, 2 weeks ago

Hi Tony

Apprenticeship main aims are identified in the flat file using A10 = 46 but in the single ILR main aims are identified using the Aim type field (where Aim Type = 2).

The LIS will convert learning aims with a funding model of 46 into Aim type 2.

I hope that helps.

Anita posted on the forum topic Agreed temporary break in learning and re-starting the learning aim – Employer Responsive funding in the group Data Issues: 9 months, 3 weeks ago

There were further discussions recently with the Agencies regarding breaks in learning for learner responsive and we issued two new FAQs as a result:

http://www.theia.org.uk/ilr/faqs/general/#8

http://www.theia.org.uk/ilr/faqs/general/#9

The information in the LR provider support manual will be updated to reflect the guidance given in the FAQs.

If the deletion flag is set to Y then all the learning aims for that learner will be deleted, regardless of whether they are ER or LR.

Anita posted on the forum topic Apprentices and Additional Support Funding in the group Data Issues: 10 months, 1 week ago

Hi Darren

If a learner requires ALN or ASN mid-way through a learning aim then the original aim must be ended and a new one started with the ALN/ASN indicated in field A53. The same applies if a learner stops receiving ALN/ASN.

There is more information on how this should be coded in the [...]
Anita posted on the forum topic Removing of Key Skills funding in the group Data Issues: 10 months, 2 weeks ago

Hi Kate

I have checked with the funding policy team and their reply was that if the provider is aware that a certificate exists then learning (and therefore funding) must not start.

The A70 code should be as stated on the allocation schedule. Your contract manager should be able to advise.

Once all the learning activities for the framework are complete then the programme aim can be closed with the date the framework ended in field A31. It does not have to be left open. A35 will be recorded as code 04 and L39 as 95.

When you have received the Framework Completion Certificate [...]
