BPP Apprenticeship Onboarding — To-Be Walkthrough

Training Coordinator

Step 01 / 10

A client starts the application via Client Hub.

The learner is automatically linked to the client record at the point of creation — removing the manual matching that today requires email exchanges between BPP Operations and the client.

✓

Possible impact Removes audit time from onboarding by linking learner-to-client at the source.

●clienthub.bpp.com / learners / new

Step 01 of 04

Add new learners

Add up to 25 apprentices in a single batch. We'll auto-link them to your client record.

Step 02 / 10

Apprentice leverages the existing Join workflow.

No new account creation, no parallel application form. The apprentice picks up from where their employer left off, with a personalised welcome and pre-filled context.

✓

Possible impact Reduces friction at first touch — no duplicate Salesforce records, no broken handover from client to learner.

Step 03 / 10

Onboarding teams benefit from automated checks.

Identity, eligibility, levy status, and prior learning are all verified automatically the moment an application enters the system — compressing the 4-week processing window into days.

✓

Possible impact Cuts the share of onboarding lead time spent on hold — currently 51% of total time.

Step 04 / 10

Apprentices and line managers get nudged when information is missing.

Apprentices and line managers receive automated nudges only when something is missing or actionable — not the email overload that today comes from four different BPP teams.

✓

Possible impact Replaces ad-hoc email chasing with a single, consistent channel — reducing comms volume by an order of magnitude.
