Guide To Set Up a New Apprenticeship Cohort on DAS Account

Here is a guide to support you through setting up a new apprenticeship cohort on your Digital Apprenticeship Service (DAS) account. Once the cohort is created, we’ll be able to add the learner details and issue the training agreement for approval. Below are the steps you’ll need to follow:

How to Create a Cohort on Your DAS Account

Step 1

Log in to your DAS account

Go to your Apprenticeship Service account and sign in using your usual credentials.

Step 2

Select “Your training providers”

This will show the list of providers you’re linked with.

Step 3

Choose “Add an apprentice” or “Create a cohort”

Depending on your dashboard layout, you’ll see one of these options. Both lead to the same process.

Step 4

Select Pier Training as your training provider

This ensures the cohort is routed to us for completion. Details required: Pier Technology Limited trading as Pier Training. Company Registration: 07859314 UKPRN: 10040417 VAT Reg: 290935281 Registered Address – 43 Calthorpe Road, Edgbaston. Birmingham B15 1TS

Step 5

Choose the apprenticeship standard

Select the correct standard from the list. For example, Level 4 Domestic & Sexual Abuse Support Worker Code: ST0862 Version 1.0

Step 6

Enter the learner’s basic details

You’ll be asked for:

Full name
Date of birth
Email address
Employment start date
Apprenticeship start date (dd/mm/yy)

Step 7

Review and submit the cohort

Once submitted, it will come through to us to add the remaining details, including the training plan and price. After we’ve completed our section, it will return to you for final approval.

We at Pier Training would be happy to discuss any aspects of Apprenticeships you may be interested in. Please don’t hesitate to get in touch, we look forward to hearing from you.
