BIL

Created

None

Hi, I have an apprentice who has returned from a break in learning.  When stopping his BIL, my MIS system has added the time lost to the end of his apprenticeship, which I believe to be correct?  but the DAS record has stayed the same when the employer has stopped the pause.  Do I ask the employer to increase the PED, do I, or do I just leave it?

 

many thanks

No, you don't have to get them to change it. At this point the apprentices service is pretty much just a gatekeeper for the funding - it's your ILR that'll determine how the payments are calculated. Planned end date isn't even part of the matching process between the 2 systems:

The data values we will use to match are:  

  • an identifying number for the apprentice (the Unique Learner Number)  

  • the provider reference number (UKPRN)  

  • the apprenticeship standard code from Find a learning aim  

  • the total negotiated price 

  • an additional check to ensure that the start date on the ILR is not before the start of the record on the employer’s account 

  • the ‘Apprenticeship financial record date’ in ILR returns
