Can the Inclusion Module Be Used for Non-Apprenticeship Learners?

✨ Frequently Asked Question
This article forms part of our Inclusion Module FAQ series.

Overview

Yes. The Inclusion Module can be used for any learner within Onefile Eportfolio, regardless of the programme they are studying.

The module has been designed around the learner rather than the programme, meaning it can support apprentices, adult learners, vocational learners, and learners studying standalone qualifications.

How the Inclusion Module Works

The Inclusion Module is linked to learner records rather than a specific funding model or programme type.

If a learner exists within Onefile Eportfolio and you have permission to access them, they can be managed through the Inclusion Module.

This includes learners studying:

  • Apprenticeships
  • Diplomas
  • Certificates
  • Vocational Qualifications
  • Adult Learning Programmes
  • Standalone Qualifications

Can Adult Learners Use the Inclusion Module?

Yes. Adult learners completing standalone qualifications can benefit from the same Inclusion Module features as apprenticeship learners.

This includes functionality such as:

  • Barriers to Learning
  • Support Needs
  • Reasonable Adjustments
  • Support Plans
  • Support Delivery Tracking
  • Wellbeing Check-ins
  • Learner Support Reviews

Can Learners Be Filtered by Programme?

Yes. Although the Inclusion Module is learner-based, programme information remains available for filtering and reporting purposes.

Users can utilise fields such as:

  • Main Learning Aim
  • Programme Information
  • Learner Characteristics
  • Support Information

This makes it easier to analyse support provision across different learner groups.

Benefits of a Learner-Based Approach

Because the Inclusion Module is not restricted to a specific programme type, Centres can adopt a consistent learner support process across their organisation.

This allows staff to:

  • Manage support information in one place.
  • Apply consistent support processes.
  • Monitor wellbeing across different learner groups.
  • Track support delivery regardless of qualification type.
  • Report on learner support activity across the whole Centre.

Example

A Centre delivers both apprenticeships and standalone Diploma qualifications.

  • Apprentices can be managed through the Inclusion Module.
  • Diploma learners can also be managed through the Inclusion Module.
  • Support Plans, Wellbeing Check-ins, and Support Delivery records can be used consistently across both groups.
  • Reporting can be filtered by programme where required.

Tips & Notes

  • The Inclusion Module is learner-based, not programme-based.
  • Any learner within Onefile Eportfolio can be supported through the module.
  • Adult learners and learners completing standalone qualifications are fully supported.
  • Programme information remains available for filtering and reporting.
  • The same support processes can be applied across different qualification types.
