The aXcelerate App is available for any Host Employer Supervisors that have Learners attending a Work Placement at their organisation. Learners will have access to the aXcelerate Learner App which they will use to submit Logbook Entries containing details about the time they spend during their Placement. The aXcelerate App will allow you to review their Logbook Entries and mark their attendance.
Note: If you do not know what your aXcelerate login details are, please contact the training provider organising the Work Placements.

Review Logbook Entries in the aXcelerate App

Tip: When setting a Logbook Entry to Needs Review the Learner will be prompted to update the details of the entry and resubmit it. It is helpful to inform the student what needs to be changed about the entry when selecting this status.
Note: Logbook Entries can also be signed off via the Learner App if the correct setting has been enabled. This can be useful in circumstances where the Supervisor signing off may not be a full time Supervisor. To enable this setting, speak to your Account Administrator.

Use the aXcelerate App Offline
After you have initially logged into the aXcelerate App, if you lose internet connection you will still be able to access the information at the time you went offline. You will also still be able to review Logbook Entries, provide feedback, and mark attendance while offline.
This information will be stored in the app and then submitted once you get an internet connection. This allows you to use the App to manage Learners undertaking Work-based Learning that you are supervising while in remove areas that don't have internet access.
