What is an apprenticeship?

An apprenticeship is a blend of a full-time job with training. The apprentice will split their time 80/20. 80% of their working time will be spent carrying out their day-to-day job responsibilities. 20% of their time will be ‘off-the-job’ and spent working towards their apprenticeship qualification.

From August 1st 2022, the new minimum off the-job training requirement for a full-time apprentice is 20% of a 30 hour week (even if the apprentice works more than 30 hours per week); this equates to an average of 6 hours of off-the-job training per week.

Vital to the success of the apprenticeship, the learner has to be actively working towards the standards at least 20% of the time they are paid by you over a minimum duration of 12 months.

My experience with Whyy? Change for my CIM training has been massively positive. After looking for a new provider after a negative experience, I was extremely happy with both the quality of training, attentiveness, and support from all the staff. I would highly recommend Whyy? Change to anyone looking for credible apprenticeships or training opportunities within the Sheffield, Barnsley region.

The team at Whyy Change are exceptional at what they do. I was lucky enough to be part of a Leadership and Management course run by them and the course was tailored to each participant's specific needs. The course was relatable, relevant, engaging and above all enjoyable. A great team offering great services and inspiring success in those that attend training courses with them.

Next course starting soon!
