Taking the construction industry as an example there is the Construction Skills Training Levy where all undertakings with an annual salary bill greater than about £75000 are legally required to pay a proportion to a centralised training fund.....a similar scheme for heritage bodies could be a way of ensuring that all archaeological undertakings in the UK contribute fairly and proportionately to the general training of the profession.....not quite sure how identification and payment to the construction scheme is administered, but I guess some kind of registration ala the IfA RAO scheme is involved...
