Part 1: Overview – Understanding the Funding Landscape
OCN London invites you to the first in a new webinar series designed to help centres navigate the complex world of education and skills funding. This introductory session will provide a clear overview of the current funding landscape, including how different funding streams operate, who controls them, and how centres can begin to access them.
We’ll demystify key terms and funding types, explain how funding links to qualifications and learner eligibility, and highlight practical steps your centre can take to start making the most of available opportunities.
This session is ideal for those new to funding or looking to refresh their understanding.
Upcoming Deep Dives in the Series:
- Part 2: National Funding – Exploring core national funding streams such as Adult Skills, Study Programme, and Tailored Learning.
- Part 3: Regional and Devolved Funding – Understanding how devolved authorities like the Greater London Authority (GLA) and Mayoral Combined Authorities allocate and prioritise funding.
- Part 4: London Focus – LSIPs and Sub-Regional Priorities – A closer look at London’s Local Skills Improvement Plans, borough-level priorities, and how providers can align their offer to meet local demand.
