Question: For apprenticeships, will training providers be paid more if there is a change to the delivery methodology and timetable?

Answer passage (source: UK):
page_title: Guidance Guidance for apprentices, employers, training providers, end-point assessment organisations (EPAOs) and external quality assurance providers about changes to apprenticeships due to coronavirus (COVID-19)
section_headers: Apprenticeship training frequently asked questions
Can I change training provider if they are offering more on-line/digital delivery?
section_content: A change in training provider can occur at any time, although it is likely to
be more difficult in the current climate.
When an apprentice and employer start working with a new training provider,
activity must take place to ensure that the apprenticeship programme and
apprentice are eligible for funding. Examples of necessary activity include:

initial assessment of the apprentice
completion and signing of agreements

Evidence must be collected and retained to support this activity but can be
held in a digital or electronic format.

Reviewer feedback on this answer:
Answer does relate to apprenticeships and providers but concerns itself with a change in provider and not if the existing provider has changed the way they do things.
Discusses changes to the training provider, not payments for rescheduled training.

section_headers: Funding
19 funding arrangements (grant-funded providers)
section_content: As we will use data from the 2019/20 academic year to calculate 16 to 19
allocations for 2021/22, the ESFA may need to apply a different approach to a
number of elements within 16 to 19 funding. Where appropriate we will
therefore use alternative data sources to calculate allocations for 2021/22 to
ensure as far as possible that there is not a disproportionate impact on
funding.

Reviewer feedback on this answer:
Answer is only concerned with funding allocation and does not touch upon apprenticeships or training providers changing their "delivery methodology and timetable."
Doesn't address the question asked about payments for rescheduled apprenticeship education.

Will training providers be paid more for rescheduling off-the-job training and bringing it forward?
section_content: No, the normal monthly payment profile will apply over the length of the
apprenticeship, as it currently does whether providers deliver blocks of
training or more evenly spaced training. Providers should factor this in if
they are considering a change to the delivery methodology and timetable.

Reviewer feedback on this answer:
Answer is very concise and to the point regarding training providers' payment during an apprenticeship not changing even if providers change the "delivery methodology and timetable."
Clearly says that changes to education timetables do not affect payment rates.
