Compliance
In order to gain assurance, the WMCA’s Skills Delivery team will undertake regular compliance checks of all providers. These compliance checks may also be outsourced to a WMCA partner. The number of compliance checks undertaken per year will be dependent upon the RAG rating assigned to you as outlined above.
The compliance checks will include, but not be limited to:
-
Systems and processes
-
ILR Data
-
EAS submission
-
Sample check of learner files
-
Sub-contracting arrangements
-
Other contractual requirements
WMCA will select a sample of learner files to check randomly using a method chosen by WMCA. The frequency, periodicity and size of the samples may change throughout the contract period. We also reserve the right to request compliance audits on specific areas of delivery as part of our financial risk management.
As part of our compliance monitoring, we will continue to monitor compliance with the funding rules. We will contact you when we identify you have submitted data that does not meet our funding rules and ILR requirements.
We will require you to correct inaccurate ILR and EAS data or to adjust your final funding claim.
