I have identified this exact issue today with a couple of our learners too.  Its very frustrating isn't it?

1. Previous ITP drew down funding, but Skills Scan shows no RPL

Thanks Martin West  However, i'm just trying to quantify if our internal assessment is enough to meet the Learning difficulty assessment (LDA) element or if it needs to be from a recognised external body.    Thanks in advance.

Thanks Kelly,    I've had eversheds recommended to me previously but given AELP produce a template, and we are only subcontracting apprenticeships, i'm not sure if we could just take some legal advice on that to cover us?   Many thanks

Another way of looking at it I guess,  is that they may be thinking providers who built their programmes on 20% otj based on a learner working (for example) 40 hours a week are not going to suddenly rewrite and reduce the content of their Schemes of work to cap it at a maximum of 6 hours per week average.  Therefore any reduction in RPL should keep you above the minimum duration period and in line with new OTJ requirements....Certainly going to be interesting though.
