It will definitely work past 500 learners, it just gets very slow and unwieldy to use at that point. My benchmark is "if you can't name all of your learners and which Standard they're on, probably time to get a real system"...
18-24 months for procurement is *harsh* though, given you'll probably want a bare minimum of 9 months to set it up properly once you've bought it...
Hello,
We are currently in the early stages of rolling out our new tool - Enter Learning Data (ELD). This is an alternative to LET that we have been testing with providers over the past year. We have started a phase we call public beta in which providers use the new tool for their ILR submissions and provide us with some feedback on their experience.
Similar to LET the new tool will be free to providers with the purpose of inputting data on their learners and producing an ILR file for submission on SLD. However, ELD has been designed to improve the data entry process for providers, therefore looks and operates different to LET and there are no restrictions on learner counts.
If you would be interesting in hearing more about this, please email our user researcher Alice who will set up a call with you: alice.greenwood@education.gov.uk

Learner Entry Tool - Number of Learners?
Created
Hello All,
I'm just after a few opinions on the Learner Entry Tool.
I have heard that when providers start getting to the 100 mark, they should be looking into getting a new ILR / LMS system. I'm aware that the cap states 500 learners.
Does anyone have any experiences of going above the 100 mark or recommend another set number of learners?
Unfortunately, procurement for a system within our centre is 18-24 months so not easy to get this up and running so we need to stretch the LET as much as possible.
