Subcontracting
Arranging for another organisation to deliver learning that the lead provider remains accountable for.
In full
Where a provider subcontracts delivery, it remains accountable for the funding, the data and the quality. Subcontracting carries specific approval, declaration, fee transparency and management requirements.
It is an area of consistent audit attention, and the requirements are set out in the funding rules for the stream and year.
