Course Structure
The course is split into a number of phases: On-programme Training and development takes place during this part of the apprenticeship, with apprentices attending college one day every two weeks, plus self-study days in the interim weeks. During this time, you will develop a portfolio. During their training, apprentices will develop the knowledge, skills and behaviours expected from a competent Professional Manager.End Point Assessment (EPA) is the final stage that an apprentice goes through to complete their apprenticeship. The apprentice must show their learning to an independent end-point assessor and the overall grade available is distinction, pass or fail.
The apprenticeship duration is 3 years plus the final preparation for the EPA. The total time may vary by student but we aim for completion within 3.5 years.
