Notes

  • Where the delivery point is a building site without a postcode the local provider's postcode should be used.

  • This should be the delivery location at start. There is no requirement for providers to update this information if the learner's delivery location changes.

  • For learners undertaking HE learning where the majority of learning takes place in the workplace, the postcode of the HE centre (or college) should be recorded in the HE centre location postcode field in the Learning Delivery HE entity
