ARODS Apprenticeship Management Service

Manage RPLs, apprenticeships, pre-apprenticeships, work-based learning (WBL) (industry placements, T-level, and work experience) all in one place.

A free standard subscription and £zero setup fees mean a risk-free evaluation is possible.

An Affordable Apprenticeship Management System That Does the Hard Work for You!

ARODS is an AI-powered Training Provider System that is both low-cost and a one-stop solution, changing how apprenticeships and work-based learning are delivered. ARODS gives your management team the clarity, automation, and assurance needed to run a high-performing, compliant apprenticeship provision without the usual admin drag.

Why Do Colleges & Training Providers Look More Closely at ARODS?

ARODS Apprentice Management System empowers your leadership and delivery teams to:

Use actionable dashboards and alerts to close the gap between strategy and everyday work. Improve performance, cut costs, and give employees more time for excellent training and support.

Optimise performance, reduce costs, and free staff time for quality training and support.

This combination makes ARODS worth a serious look for any provider looking to grow, protect funding, and improve on-time completions.

Standout Features You Won’t Find Elsewhere

Revolutionise your apprenticeship management with ARODS and unlock:

  • Industry-first built-in RPL calculator, available in the free standard plan.
  • Unbeatable FREE standard subscription with no license fees, in exchange for a simple web link back to ARODS.
  • AI-driven quantitative analysis that works on its own and predicts timely completion with up to 95% accuracy, identifying risks early.

Other companies charge a lot of extra money for RPL and WBL tools. ARODS includes them, so you can focus on making decisions rather than adding features.

Complete Journey in One System

ARODS makes every step of the apprenticeship process easy, so nothing is overlooked.

  • Seamless application processing. When there are no paper forms and timely alerts, processing applications is straightforward.
  • Smart monitoring of Recognition of Prior Learning (RPL) and Work-Based Learning (WBL) placement can help you find apps that won’t work and save money on loans.
  • Automated off-the-job training monitoring allows you to easily track the recording of OTJ training activities with early warnings when goals are at risk.
  • Dynamic course scheduling ensures that students, tutors, and employers all know what’s going on.
  • Two-way progress reviews (learner & coach) enable the exchange of feedback and evidence as you progress. If three-way (learner, coach & employer) progress reviews are what you need, we can handle them too!
  • Intelligent assignment and evidence management are fully digitised.
  • EPA preparation made simple: The platform provides. Export evidence together with a PDF table of contents in just a few clicks.
  • PLUS: You can extend ARODS through pre-apprenticeships, work experience, T-Levels, and industry placements on the same platform.

Tangible Outcomes for Your Organisation

Providers using the ARODS Apprentice Management System typically see:

  • Real-time monitoring and early identification of issues that impact success or funding.
  • A substantial reduction in administrative burden across onboarding, tracking, and reporting.
  • Embedded eSFA, Ofsted, and RoATP-compliant processes with audit-ready documentation.
  • More time for frontline quality, coaching, and employer engagement.
  • Ensuring timely completions leads to happier employers and improved outcomes for learners.
  • Improved client satisfaction and the building blocks for faster business success.

These are the same areas that funders and inspectors check, so it’s important to make improvements that matter.

Manage Apprentices With Ease

Apprentice Applications

The apprentice’s journey starts with an application.  ARODS makes this process simple and easy to use.

Our application form covers all of the statutory requirements.  The Learner can complete the form online directly on your website or you can email them a link.

This is a completely paperless system and your onboarding team will be notified instantly of new applications.

 

Recognition of Prior Learning

Competitors charge ridiculous fees to use their RPL system.  RPL is built into the ARODS system and you can use it completely FREE OF CHARGE!

Design your own RPL forms and have Learners complete them online.  The entire system is paperless and automated.

On receiving the form your onboarding team can instantly identify non-viable applications or where discounts need to be applied.

Off-the-job-training

A completely paperless system.  Students record their OTJT hours online.  ARODS early warning system automatically notifies you that OTJT targets are not met.

 

Progress Reviews

Schedule one or recurring progress reviews in an instant.  Book progress reviews in advance.  Employers, tutors and students input.  Ask the right questions and make sure you are eSFA and OFSTED compliant.

 

Assignments

Create dynamic assignments to capture evidence and assign them to your students. Monitor progress and keep a journal of all messages and feedback ready for OFSTED audit.
