EPA non-attendance

Created

None

Hi, we have an apprentice who attended one element of his EPA, but didn't attend the others.  The EPAO have recorded this as an attempt as it was a cancellation on the day due to non-attendance.  Are we able to count this as an attempt for funding purposes to claim the completion payment or will this be only for be the awarding body in relation to resit fees?

Thanks

The latter I'm afraid... If you can't show they've attempted all elements then they have to be a withdrawal...

Hi, sorry to pick up an old thread - does this mean that no-shows are not allowed another opportunity to attempt EPA?

No, they can have another go, but you can't mark them as complete until they stop doing all elements of the EPA (same as if they have to resit).
