Financial support is provided by the Department for Education. In the academic year 2022/23, the Department for Education has approved funding for 15 Access to Higher Education Diplomas in Nursing through the Adult Education Budget or Advanced Learner Loans. If a learner then completes an eligible higher education course, the balance of the Advanced Learner Loan for the Access course will be written off.
