Overview
The gateway confirmation process within epaPRO has been enhanced to allow Provider users the opportunity to confirm (and change, if necessary) key pieces of information before confirming an apprentice. This should provide an easier way for provider Provider users to update the apprentice details at the point of confirmation, and provide EPAO users with more accurate information.
Changes to Functionality
🆕 The provider screen has been updated to have a new “Settings” tab - this is only visible to Awarding Organisation users. A new setting has been added to this screen called “Uses Gateway Verification Method” - this new setting enables the new gateway process outlined in this release.

This will require training for your Providers and other users if you opt to enable it using the settings shown above. |
Enrolled Gateway
The enrolled screen within the gateway menu has been updated to now provide a “Verify” button, instead of the “Confirm” button previously offered. Clicking this new button now opens a modal window where users must accept (and change, if necessary) the following key pieces of information prior to submission:
...
Any information relating to the above can be amended prior to submission - changing this information will update the apprentice record with the new details automatically.

Note that the frontend of epaPRO has been updated during this development to show the “Expected ready for EPA date to read ” as the “Expected Gateway Date.Note this has been a frontend change only - bulk upload and API will still use the original field names to preserve functionality. This has yet to be loaded to Sandbox.”, to make this field’s functionality clearer to providers. Bulk upload and API have not been changed, meaning no changes to external systems need to be made to cater for these changes. |
Steps
The screens can be broken down to three steps:-
...
Below you will see an example of the 3 steps that a provider will need to complete before the gateway is verified if this setting is enabled.
On the first step the Standard and Specialism can be selected, the provider can then confirm this using the toggle at the end of the page or they can skip to step 2 and review that, before making any confirmations.
...
Note that once an apprentices details have been updated via the verification process, unconfirming the details will not revert the apprentice to the previous standard / estimated gateway date against that apprentice. If these details are submitted incorrectly, they can be changed after the unconfirming process via the normal methods (API, apprentice screen, update apprentice bulk upload).
The rest of the gateway process has not been changed as part of this development.
