Enhanced Learning Credits (ELCAS) are used to fund military personnel currently serving or going through resettlement. There are two tears of funding depending on time served. To get the most out of your funding you are allowed to combine relevant courses into a single bundle for that financial year. Below are a list of those ELCAS courses suitable to bundle.

Q1. Can I combine more than one course?
A1. Yes. IPSO FACTO can combine a number of course titles. This means that you can use your full allowance to book more courses under one claim.
Q2. Are combination courses set or can I mix and match?
A2. You can mix and match to get the most out of your funding.
Q3. Do courses need to run sequentially and be within a set period?
A3. Not necessarily. However, to enable you to get the best benefit from your ELCAS allowances it is advisable to book your courses within the same ELC credit period.
Q4. If I book two courses, is it important which course I take first?
A4. No, but sometimes there are advantages to do so, for example: PRINCE2 before a PMQ. PFQ before a PMQ. Other wise its not important.
Q5. Is it advisable to book accommodation for the course?
A5. If you live within 1 hour’s commute of the training venue it is not necessary to book hotel accommodation for the duration of the course. However you need to allow plenty of time to complete evening homework and consolidate your learning. For ELCAS delegates HMS Collingwood is very close.

Q7. Can receipts for the above be billed to the candidate?
