Details

ILR specification 2014 to 2015 trailblazer apprenticeship standard (TBS) codes are available in the LARS database: Learning Aims Search.

These documents set out the details of the data about further education (FE) learners and their learning that must be collected by colleges, training organisations, local authorities and employers (FE providers).

They provide a technical specification of ILR data collection requirements, for those who make data returns, implement data specifications and design information systems; including management information (MI) managers, software writers and suppliers.

The data collected is used to calculate funding due to FE providers, for performance monitoring, future planning and to ensure that public money is being spent in-line with government targets.
