Hi All

 

We are new to processing our Skills Bootcamp Learner on PICS.  We are currently receiving the following validation error

If a Skills Bootcamp learner's latest programme aim is open, there must be a corresponding subject learning aim.

Please could anyone shed any light on it.

Thank You

So, you'll need a/some learning aims in addition to the Programme aim (ZPROG001)? Are they there and miscoded (eg, not AimType3/Component Aims or not the right Funding Model or not the right Programme Type) or have you only got a ZPROG?

Steve Hewitt

From the Wave 6 ones I've seen, the Local/Combined/Strategic Authority funding it should *probably* be telling you which subject aim to use depending on what kind of Bootcamp it is?

Thanks Steve, we added Early Years Bootcamp Z reference. 

When we add Component aim reference (EVI) we now receive the following 

ILR Aim Z0059747 (start 09/09/2025): Skills Bootcamp event aims' Learning Start Date, Learning Planned End Date, and Learning Actual End Date must be the same.  -  LearnAimRef_126

Can you help with this one, please

Thank you

I mean, I'll only be quoting from here, not actually done one in anger myself yet:

What I will say is, if the bootcamp started after 1 August then you DON'T use the separate event aims, you use EVIs. Per ILR Spec, these go on the Prog aim:

Hi Steve. Thanks alot. We've removed the Z event codes and added EVI into LDM.

We are now error free.
