Is there a timescale that a learner has to complete their EPA after going through Gateway?

Hi Jaci,

Nothing official in the funding rules that I know of.

The EPAO have their own timescales for the EPA aspects and this should be notified to the training provider, for us to factor in when agreeing the planned end date with the employer and for paperwork. I know for EPAO's we work with, there is a standard 3 months unless it is accounting, which could exceed 3 months based on level and synoptic dates. So I would reach out to your EPAO or the one the employer has selected.

Hope it helps.

Thank you Sarah that's what I thought.  Typical, for me the one part of the whole process that I would actually like a formal timescale on is this as I don't want any learners to be forgotten about as they are technically leavers.  How are you all tracking or reporting on this?
