EPA - Career break during EPA

Created

None

I hope someone has an answer to this question for me:

A learner is in EPA and the employer has agreed a career break. From ESFA funding rules perspective, can the learner sit EPA during this career break period as they are still "technically" employed and will be returning to the employer?

Thank you,

I guess so, as you say, they're still employed. Going to depend on a. the learner's availability/willingness b. whether any elements of the EPA need them to be in the workplace (and whether that can be arranged during the break)?
