An apprenticeship is a training program that combines on-the-job learning with classroom instruction. It allows individuals to acquire practical skills and knowledge in a specific trade or profession while working under the guidance of experienced professionals.
We ask learners to attend 1x 2hr lecture per month, these are set in advance and will always be during working hours (09:00 – 17:00). In addition to this, learners are required to evidence 5hrs of their work activities per week, which relate to their course standards. This is logged in their portfolio as ‘OTJ Hours’ and will be assessed by their tutors. For example, if a learner is enrolled on the Digital Marketing qualification, and they spend 3hrs a week managing a social media campaign through your companies Instagram account, this would make up 3 of the 5 OTJ hours they are required to log each week.
For non-levy paying businesses, the government pay for 95% of the course fees, and the employer makes a 5% co-payment. For Levy paying businesses, the allocation comes straight out of the companies levy account.
If the If the learner withdraws within 30 days of starting the course, the employer will be charged an administration fee of £500. If they withdraw 31-90 days after starting the employer will be charged an administration fee of £1000. If the learner withdraws from programme 90+ days after starting, there are no fees to pay.
Between 12 and 33 months depending on the qualification level.
