As part of the SFA\u2019s ongoing assurance and audit work, we continue to monitor that colleges and training organisations (providers) are using funding in line with government priorities as set out in the funding rules.<\/p>\n

It is important that providers make sure their data is accurate before the end of the funding year 2014 to 2015, and the SFA has been working with providers throughout the year to resolve specific data issues. <\/p>\n

This has already led to a significant reduction in the number of errors recorded, however, discussions with our stakeholder advisory groups highlighted that providers would also find it useful to receive summary reports showing individual data errors.
