Most of your apprenticeship is spent working. You’ll learn on the job by getting hands-on experience.
Apprenticeships include time away from working for specialist training. You’ll study to gain professional knowledge and skills.
For this apprenticeship standard, learners will have the opportunity to focus on the knowledge, skills and behaviours of the standard that will enable good business acumen, decision-making and an understanding of tools and techniques related to time and project management. The completion of this apprenticeship standard will require monthly training visits from a qualified IPS Trainer to help support the apprentice. This will allow them to develop skills and progress the building of the apprentice portfolio to prepare the learner for the End Point Assessment.
Delivery is primarily carried out through remote visits, but the trainer will visit the learner’s workplace quarterly and at the start of training to allow for a good working relationship between all parties for smooth delivery of the standard. Upon successful completion, the learner will achieve the Level 3 Business Administrator Standard.
Essential qualifications:
- GCSE in:
- English and Maths (grade 4/C and above)
