Description
For 2024/25 NHSE WT&E intends to facilitate successful ECP apprenticeship programme delivery by pump priming AHP profession specific courses with £10k pp funding to support the development of apprentice funded training into the future, where funding can be used to support the development of innovative and sustainable delivery of these new programmes across England in their first year, to support:
Educator capacity
Educational requirements in practice

This funding will be offered to Higher Education Institutions (HEIs) to support the above development and will be additional and independent to the apprenticeship levy. We expect employers will draw down on the levy to access course fees.
