Apprenticeship information
Entry requirements
A minimum of five GCSE at grade 4 (C) or above including Maths and English AND aspiring to be a team leader/supervisor with exposure to that role.
Where and how will I study?
- One day per month masterclass at Training 2000, Blackburn or weekly classes taught online.
- For those attending the monthly masterclasses six hours per week need to be dedicated towards portfolio work and training in the workplace
Duration
18 months
English and Maths
You will only need to complete English and Maths Functional Skills if you are unable to provide evidence of your GCSE qualifications or if your existing grades are just below the required entry requirements.
Apprentices who began their apprenticeship training when aged 19+ will no longer be subject to the mandatory requirement to study towards and achieve English and maths. However, for apprentices aged 19+, the apprentice or their employer can still choose for the apprentice to study towards an English and maths qualification.
The Functional Skills programme runs as an addition to the time you are already required to spend doing your off-the-job training. Following a thorough assessment process, we will select a learning plan suitable for you, which will be either 2-weeks full-time or 12-weeks (one day per-week) each for English and/or maths.
If a subject needs re-sitting, this will be additional time in the classroom on top of your learning plan.
