Welcome
The Hub provides online services for use by organisations working with the Education and Skills Funding Agency (ESFA).
These organisations are mainly colleges, training organisations and employers that have a funding agreement to provide education and training.
On the Hub, you can use data collections to send in your Individualised Learner Record (ILR) return. You can also search all learning aims, units, apprenticeships and associated validity and funding details to support the submission of your ILR.
Some of these areas require you to sign in to use them. You can Sign in at the top right of the screen.
