Declarations are acceptable, per the below
Evidence of employment to confirm that the apprentice is employed by that employer or a connected company or charity as defined by HMRC. This can be a relevant extract from a contract of employment or it could be a signed declaration by the employer.
The provider has confirmed with the employer that the apprentice is receiving a lawful wage whilst they are on the apprenticeship. This evidence can be a copy of the employment terms and conditions or a written statement regarding wages on the training plan (which is subsequently signed by the employer).

Apprentices' Contracts of Employment

Are Providers required to see evidence of an Apprentice's employment contract and wage / salary, to evidence eligibility? Or can we use self-declarations which are signed / dated by the employer and apprentice?
I know from AEB work I have done that the latter is acceptable (for full funding claims based on unemployment, for example) but would this be sufficient if Audited for Apprenticeship Funding?
Thank you
