Fool to do otherwise.
Not sure on the funding levels, but can't see it covering everything.
Edit: £6k max funding.

£6k funding per applicant, but I think an organisation can access all of the 0.5% of their wage bill that they are levied and on a use it or lose it basis.
Whilst I think its sensible of any organisation to use the funding, it does present another challenge; I'm not sure they can put the financial burden on drivers, post qualification, if they choose to leave before a certain period of time with the company. Or at least if they do, it'd have to be minus that £6,000 per applicant funding - and the figures I've seen quoted previously is that it costs no more than a third of that to train someone up.
