IPS International Limited is a training organisation that contracts with the ESFA, accessing public funds to deliver Apprenticeships and Traineeships and uses subcontractors to extend its own Apprenticeship and Traineeship delivery to meet the needs of employers and add real value to the young people and Apprentices being trained. IPS only subcontracts where this complies with ESFA contracts and funding rules and other policy documents issued from time to time and ensures correct and proper use of ESFA funds.
