How will new providers be brought into Framework (e.g. Train to Gain)?
Where a provider is contracting with the LSC for the first time, it will be required to fulfil the data collection requirements of the Framework from the start of its contract. This expectation should be part of the induction process/contract discussions with each new provider. can The data available from the first year of a contract will be used, wherever possible, to calculate as many scores as possible for individual Performance Indicators, however it may not be possible to produce and OPR. Further details of these requirements can be found in the 2008/09 Provider Guide.
