For the overall QAR measure achievement indicates whether the programme aim has been achieved, the completion status is recorded as complete when the completion status is 2 (Pass or fail).

Option 1 as the remaining amount (completion payment) is split when TNP ¾ is used 80/20% between remaining monthly payments and completion payment. No you cannot change the planned end date in the ILR.

The Prior learning funding adjustment field only applies to M/E component aims and not the Programme aim. HTH

These requirements are already covered in the Apprenticeship agreements notes and guidance in the existing funding rules. Agreement notes: Why is an apprenticeship agreement required? This includes: An apprenticeship agreement must be put in place when an individual starts a relevant apprenticeship programme and should remain in place throughout the entire apprenticeship. What should happen with the signed apprenticeship agreement? The employer must keep the agreement for the duration of the apprenticeship and give a copy to the apprentice and to the training provider. What is a break in learning? A break in learning is where an individual takes a break of at least 4 weeks from their apprenticeship training but plans to return to it in the future. This can be with or without a break from work. When the apprentice restarts the programme, all documentation, including the apprenticeship agreement and training plan, must be reviewed and updated to account for the duration of the break in learning. Funding rules Although not clear in the funding rules it has always been assumed that the Agreement must remain in force for the duration of the Apprenticeship and as such the end date may have to be revised by the employer. P301.4 Extend the practical period of the apprenticeship agreement as required. It’s not a new requirement but it has just been clarified in the 23/24 rules to match the notes on the agreement. HTH

Do you have any other component aims apart from the one LARS_CategoryRef = 62 The full error code is here: error where the contract reference number (LearningDelivery.ConRefNumber) on the component aim (AimType = 3) is the same as the programme aim (AimType =1) and LearningDelivery.ProgType = 32 And LearningDelivery.AimType = 1 and LearningDelivery.LearnActEndDate is not returned and a subject learning aim does not exist LearningDelivery.AimType = 3 and LARS_CategoryRef = 62 (where LearningDelivery.LearnAimRef = LARS_LearnAimRef and LearningDelivery.LearnStartDate >= LARS_EffectiveFrom and <= LARS_EffectiveTo in LARS_LearningDeliveryCategory)

If there is an open Skills Bootcamp programme then there must be one of the subject learning aim present in the programme with the same contract reference number. Have you followed the guidance in the PSM? https://guidance.submit-learner-data.service.gov.uk/22-23/psm/article/recording-skills-bootcamps-ilr HTH
