Off the job hours

Created

None

We planned off the job hours for a cohort and these were much higher than the minimum. It became apparent that we had over planned the volume of employer input and will be difficult to meet the hours. All apprentices will meet the minimum requirements. After checking the funding rules, I`m reading that they have to meet the planned hours and the only exemption is if the programme was a shorter duration? 

Where the training has been delivered over a shorter duration (e.g. 14 months compared to 18 months) and the actual volume of off-the-job training hours is less than the original volume of planned hours, produced a statement to explain the difference and this has been signed by all parties.
