IfL Membership Fees: no further funding from April 2011

Publication date: 11 February 2011

The Government announced in late 2010 that it would no longer subsidise fees for IfL membership having done so since 2007 and that, as a consequence, IfL would need to become self-financing. Since that announcement, Government has confirmed its commitment to membership of IfL being mandatory as the licence to practise for teachers and trainers in further education and skills.

 

IfL has negotiated some transitional funding from Government for 2011-12, which has made it possible to offer membership for an 18 month period, from 1 April 2011 until 30 September 2012, for the standard annual fee of £68.

Colleges are under no obligation to pay this fee. Please refer to AoC Employment Briefing 15/11 for further details.
