How Apprenticeships work

Apprenticeships combine practical workplace experience with structured training, supporting you to develop the skills, knowledge and behaviours needed for your role.

Enrolment and initial assessment
We assess your existing skills, knowledge and experience to ensure your programme is tailored to your starting point.

Personalised learning plan
You’ll follow a structured training plan that outlines your development, including workplace learning and off-the-job training.

On-the-job learning
You’ll gain practical experience in your role, applying your skills in a real working environment with support from your employer.

Off-the-job training
You’ll complete structured learning alongside your role, designed to develop your knowledge and skills in line with the apprenticeship standard.

Ongoing support and review
You’ll receive regular feedback and progress reviews from your tutor and employer to support your development.

Assessment
Assessment takes place throughout your programme and may include a range of methods to demonstrate your competence.

Achievement and progression
On completion, you’ll achieve a recognised qualification and be supported to progress into employment, promotion, or further study.
