Use a VA Form 22 8864 Training Agreement For Apprenticeship And Other On The Job Training Programs template to make your document workflow more streamlined.
VA Form 22 8864 overview
VA Form 22 8864 is a training agreement used to document an apprenticeship or other on-the-job training arrangement involving a veteran, an employer, and the responsible program parties. It records the approved training relationship, participant information, training details, and required signatures so the arrangement can be reviewed as one signed record. In signNow, the coordinator uploads the form, checks detected fields, assigns signer roles, sends it for review, and stores the completed PDF with its audit trail and completion certificate.
Who uses VA Form 22 8864
Apprentices and employers
Apprentices and veterans review and sign the training agreement with the employer or training provider responsible for the program.
Program administrators
Program administrators coordinate signatures, verify completed fields, and retain the signed agreement for the associated training record.
Features that support VA Form 22 8864
signNow connects document preparation, participant routing, authentication, signing evidence, and record storage around the specific training-agreement workflow.
Field preparation
Upload the VA Form 22 8864 PDF and review detected fields before assigning signatures, dates, and required participant information. This creates a repeatable preparation step without retyping the agreement into a separate system.
Signer routing
Assign separate roles to the apprentice, employer, and training coordinator when the agreement requires multiple approvals. Role-based routing makes responsibility visible and helps each participant sign only the fields assigned to them.
Reusable templates
Use a template for approved training-agreement layouts while preserving participant-specific names, dates, and training details. Templates reduce formatting changes between agreements and support consistent review by program administrators.
Audit trail
Capture signer actions, timestamps, and document history in an audit trail connected to the completed agreement. The record helps administrators demonstrate how the VA Form 22 8864 was reviewed and signed.
Mobile signing
Let participants review and sign from desktop or mobile devices through signNow. Mobile access is useful when an employer or apprentice is away from an office but still needs to complete the agreement.
Completion records
Download the signed PDF and completion certificate after the final signature. Storing both together gives the organization a retrievable evidence package for internal review and applicable government or program records processes.

Troubleshooting VA Form 22 8864 workflows
Resolve upload, authentication, plan, signing, and retention questions before sending this training agreement to an apprentice or employer.
How do I fix missing fields after upload? Upload the completed VA Form 22 8864 PDF again and review signNow’s detected fields before sending. Add or adjust signature, date, and required text fields manually. The Business plan includes templates and audit trails for repeat training-agreement workflows.
Can I use signNow Business for this agreement? Yes. The Business plan provides legally binding eSignatures, templates, mobile apps, audit trails, ISO 27001, SOC 2, and GDPR coverage. For bulk sending multiple agreements, Business Premium adds bulk send and kiosk mode.
How can I verify apprentice identity? signNow supports stronger signer authentication options, including two-factor authentication and SMS OTP. Select the authentication level appropriate for the training program, retain the completion certificate, and confirm that the signer’s identity and intent are documented.
Does an electronic VA Form 22 8864 comply with U.S. law? ESIGN and UETA generally recognize electronic signatures when intent, consent, attribution, and record retention are established. Do not use electronic signing for excluded records such as wills or court orders without separate legal review.
How do I preserve the signed agreement? Download the completed document and certificate of completion from signNow, then store both with restricted access. signNow audit trails record actions, timestamps, and signer activity, supporting later review without replacing an agency’s own retention policy.
Why is bulk sending unavailable? Bulk send is included with signNow Business Premium, not the Business plan. For separate apprentice agreements, use individual sending on Business or upgrade the workflow after confirming the template, recipient data, and required fields.
