We expect to advise providers of these outstanding initial allocations later this month via Workspace. We will keep providers informed about when these letters can be expected.

Please ensure you have an active ESAA login to access Workspace. Please see below for information about how to do this.

ESAA login – Workspace access

The Investment Plan submission tool is accessed through Workspace. To access Workspace you will need an ESAA (Education Sector Authentication and Authorisation) login.

Please ensure an appropriate staff member has an ESAA login. You may need to set up new logins and arrange for any logins that are no longer used to be deleted. Further information about getting an ESAA login is available here.

Investment Plan submission timeframes

Providers can expect to submit their 2013 Plans from this week and will have until Wednesday 5 September 2012 to submit. Providers that are able to submit ahead of the deadline are encouraged to do so as soon as the tool is made available. We expect to advise the availability of the tool for Investment Plan submissions later this week.
