Period of Training (POT)

A learner's period of training, or POT, is the period of time between their start date and their termination date. Each learner can have multiple POTs to separate out different learning programmes or to record a restart after a break in learning. In most cases, a learner would only have one open POT (i.e. a POT with no termination date) at any given time. However, there are situations where multiple open POTs are valid, such as learners on WPL schemes where each learning aim may be recorded as a separate POT.

The current POT for a learner is shown on the ribbon when a learner account is open. You can view previous POTs using the POTdropdown box. The Version dropdown box lets you view previous values for trackable changes within a POT (e.g. changes to a learner's disability status).

To add a new POT:

1. Click the button.

2. In the Add POT wizard, select a contractor and scheme, and set the start date and expected completion date, then click Next.

   

3. Click Finish to add the new POT.
