Recently the Scottish Government announced significant changes to the Individual Learning Account (ILA) from Skills Development Scotland (SDS).
SDS has now advised that after consultation with the Scottish Government and taking into account feedback from Learning Providers the deadline for using an ILA has been extended to 31 August 2017. Any courses booked must start no later than 30 September 2017.
What does this mean for Learn with SCMA members?
For SCMA members, if you have unused funds in your current ILA account you can still book onto one of our interactive CPD workshops, provided you book before 31 August 2017 and it is due to take place before the 30 September.
As advised earlier, SCMA is currently exploring opportunities going forward and is in discussion with the Scottish Government regarding this. Further announcements will be made in due course.
