Own Software Writers Group

This group consists of staff who work with in-house MI systems for their employers.   

 

Meeting outputs

At the last meeting of the group, discussion revolved around:

  • Some of the difficulties with ULNs where learners prefer to use another or abbreviated names on documents like awarding organisation certificates
  • Updates on the Single ILR in XML project, where attendees stated that the various LIS betas were helpful from a development perspective
  • The availability of the aim reference code
  • FAM code errors not being sufficiently detailed to identify problems
  • Learners who were funded by the YPLA and turn 19 during their learning would be funded by the Skills Funding Agency.  The funding model remains the same and the only change is the funding agency. The implications of this change is being discussed and guidance will follow
  • Employment status levels and the level of data collected
  • ILR changes for 2012/13
  • The publication of the data dictionary.
