      The following IDs are ApprentiScope IDs and can be pulled from the URL address when you click on an occupation, employer, provider, or cohort in the platform. 

      • occupation_id: ApprentiScope's unique identifier for the user's Occupation
      • employer_id: ApprentiScope's unique identifier for the user's Employer

      For example, the occupation_id for the occupation Numerical Control Machine Operator in the screenshot below is the last string of highlighted numbers/letters in the URL address.  By clicking on an employer in the platform, you would find their employer_ID in the same location.  

      Note:  Even though you are asked to select an employer and occupation BEFORE you upload your csv, the IDs you enter in the csv will override that initial selection.  If all the participants on your CSV are in the same occupation with the same employer, you can leave these 2 columns blank.

       

      The following are also ApprentiScope IDs that can be located the same way.  They will default to unassigned if left blank.

      • provider_id: ApprentiScope's unique identifier for the user's Education Provider
      • cohort_id: ApprentiScope's unique identifier for the user's Cohort
