This guidance notes the differences for setting up and managing apprentices in PeopleXD and should be read in conjunction with the relevant guides mentioned throughout. 

Note * Apprenticeship appointment records must only be set-up for new entrants (ie those on grade Apprentice 01A). For existing staff who take on an Apprenticeship, whilst retaining their substantive job at the University, please ensure that only a UDF record has been created. For further guidance, please contact apprenticeships@admin.ox.ac.uk
 

Only raise a staff request for ‘new entrants’ (ie those who will be joining the University as an apprentice on an Apprentice Grade). Do not raise a staff request for existing staff who take on an Apprenticeship.
