*The award of free access to these online courses is publicly funded and therefore will constitute a state funded subsidy where the organisation receiving free access to the courses is classed as an “enterprise” under the Subsidy Control Act 2022. The Subsidy Control Act 2022 permits enterprises to lawfully receive subsidies up to a total value of £315,000 over the period consisting of the elapsed part of the current financial year, and the two financial years immediately preceding the current financial year period (the “Minimum Financial Assistance Cap”).
Where an organisation awarded free access to the online courses is an enterprise under the Subsidy Control Act 2022, the organisation will be required to confirm that its receipt of such benefit shall not cause it (together with any organisation forming part of the same enterprise) to exceed the Minimum Financial Assistance Cap. The maximum value of the online bundles which will be awarded to any individual organisation is £2,000.
Codes must be redeemed and individuals enrolled by the 29th of February 2024. Applications will be selected based on eligibility and on a first come first serve basis.
