Apps OTJ query

Created

None

Hello

Where a learner transfers from another provider to continue an apprenticeship with a new provider (or restarts from withdrawal), do the funding rules relating to OTJ from their original start date apply (e.g. 20% min requirement), or would the OTJ rules be based on the new start date with the new provider (e.g. 6 hours per week min requirement)?

 

Thanks for any help

  1. If an apprentice changes their provider, how is the off-the-job training calculated; is it based on the full length of stay or just the length of stay with the new provider?
  2. Provider B can only be responsible for the activity they carry out during their time / involvement in the programme. They must carry out a new assessment of the individual, considering what Provider A has delivered and what evidence there is to substantiate this.

Restart use the original start date and OTJ hours excepting where it is from another provider when the above applies.
