Managed Courses
From 1 July 2021, Quota conditions will be removed from the STL, and replaced with 'managed courses'. Courses with this condition have a set number of places that can be created per provider, which can be drawn down in the same way as general courses. No additional application or approval processes are required to deliver courses with this condition.
Providers will be responsible for monitoring the number of training accounts they have created and adhering to the limits specified.
Should providers reach the limit set for a course, applications may be made for a review.
