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.
Apprenticeship learning route benefits
- You will have weekly face to face delivery sessions (3 hours a week)
- Employer only has to pay up to 5% of the course cost
- Apprentices are allocated 6 hours of their work time to complete the apprenticeship - 3 hours a week are delivered at Whyy? Change, 3 hours spent applying their new knowledge, skills and behaviours in their workplace
- No additional fees, all costs are included with the apprenticeship (e.g. books, CIM membership & exam fees). We believe strongly in adding value to our learners experience which is why we include two internationally recognised CIM awards.
- Our expert marketing practitioners will deliver interactive and engaging sessions to guide learners through the CIM modules
Whether they are having direct learning sessions, having meaningful 1-1’s with your marketing team to understand how to fill your skills gaps, or applying their new skills in your workplace through implementing techniques they’ve learned with Whyy?, they require the time to develop and become accomplished Marketing Practitioners over the duration of the apprenticeship…..your business will reap the rewards from this investment of time.
Once the learning has been completed, to assess that they understand and can apply their new knowledge, skills and behaviours, they will be independently assessed through assessment methods that will test them but will prove valuable for their careers in learning and development.
