ACE360 Assessments
Bulk Upload of Apprentices
The ACE360 Bulk Upload feature allows for your apprentice data to be accurately and securely uploaded, creating multiple ACE360 apprentice records in one simple process. This will alleviate some of your admin burdens and also greatly reduce the time you might otherwise spend on creating individual records. The ACE360 Bulk Upload feature can be used to create a minimum of 5 ACE360 apprentice records in one go.
Don’t forget that once the apprentice records have been created on ACE360, you will still need to access them and load the relevant Gateway evidence.
You will have received the ACE360 Bulk Upload Template as part of your initial account set up but if you require an ACE360 Bulk Upload Template please contact support@ace360.org.
Some suppliers of the commonly used training provider management systems, such as Maytas and PICS, have developed specific automated processes to work in conjunction with the ACE360 Buk Upload feature.
This guide is designed to take you through the process of completing your ACE360 Bulk Upload Template step by step highlighting some of the keys features.
Please note that before you can add any new apprentice records to ACE360, you must have available tokens. The number of available tokens will be displayed at the top of your ACE360 screen. If there are no available tokens then please contact your organisation’s ACE360 Super Admin or ACE360 Finance Manager and request the purchase of tokens.
If you need any further guidance on how to purchase tokens in ACE360, please click here.
Completing your ACE360 Bulk Upload
The ACE360 Bulk Upload Template is split up into the below sections. Please add your apprentice data to all of the fields, with key data fields marked in bold.

Most fields are clear in the data requirement however there are a few that will require certain wording or codes to enable your apprentice records to be created. This is due to the corresponding field in ACE360 having a drop down menu that requires a selection to be made. Each menu selection has a corresponding code in the underlying ACE360 database.
