From the AEB Rules

79. We will not fund:

79.5. training through ESFA funded AEB, where a learner is undertaking or planning to undertake an apprenticeship and where that training will:

79.5.1 replicate vocational and other learning aims covered by the apprenticeship standard or framework, including English and maths.

79.5.2 offer career-related training that conflicts with the apprenticeship aims.

79.5.3 be taking place during the apprentices working hours. Where an apprentice has more than one job, working hours refers to the hours of the job the apprenticeship is linked to.
