Employers

Connected confidence.

Onefile, the exceptional platform for employers.
Successful learning doesn’t happen by accident. They happen when employers are connected – to their learners, their programmes and their data.

The platform behind exceptional apprenticeships.

Better visibility. Stronger assurance. Greater outcomes.
Official platform partner of the UK Government’s Top 100 Apprenticeship Employer Rankings – a partnership built on a shared belief that exceptional apprenticeships don’t happen by accident.

Funding

The Growth & Skills Levy has raised the stakes

From April 2026, Levy funds expire in 12 months – not 24. Co-investment beyond the Levy rises to 25%. The top-up is gone. 

Are you currently maximising every pound?

Inspection

Ofsted's new framework changes everything

Single-word grades are gone. All inspections are now full and graded across six areas – including Inclusion as a standalone area for the first time. 
Employer involvement is a requirement.

Outcomes

Volume is rising. The oversight gap is widening.

Apprenticeship ‘starts’ are up 11.9% in 2025/26. But 38% of apprentices still drop out before completing. The sector isn’t waiting for employers to catch up.

Visibility changes outcomes.

Outcomes

12 months

New Levy expiry window halved from 24 months. Funds not committed in time return to Treasury.

Levy-generated funds returned to 
Treasury unspent annually. Planning 
visibility closes this gap.

FE Week / DfE, 2024

completing in 2023–24. Visibility

DfE achievement data, 2025

65.4%

67% government target. The gap is 
real and closable.

DfE / FE Week, March 2025

Levy is exhausted – up from 5%. 
Every apprenticeship has to count.
