What level of co-funding is expected from employers?
We have not set a level of funding. We would like institutions to continue to test what contribution is most appropriate from the employers they are working with. However institutions are currently securing between 25-50 per cent per FTE. In the longer term, we will have to decide how we treat co-funded provision within institutions’ mainstream grant. Institutions should not assume that we will continue to fund FTE at the rate we have during the test phase.
