Apprenticeships

Application

Our team will check whether the potential apprentice is eligible for the apprenticeship. We'll also check what additional financial support is available to your business in the form of grants and incentives to help towards the cost of their training.

Initial Assessment

We need to know what level of maths, English and possibly IT skills your potential apprentice possesses, so we’ll run a quick diagnostic to ensure we start them at the correct level, offering sufficient support if needed.

Induction

This is the first meeting between the apprentice, employer/mentor and their HIT Vocational Trainer. Together we’ll agree on a personal learning and development plan, setting a timetable of learning activities in preparation for the End Point Assessment (EPA).

Know it, Show it, Live it

Our blended delivery approach means we can adapt training to suit the needs of each learner through both face-to-face and online training, enabling them to retain new knowledge and skills whilst applying what they learn.

Gateway

At the apprenticeship gateway meeting we will assess your apprentice's readiness for the final end-point assessment. It ensures they have met all necessary standards and requirements before progressing to their final assessment.

End Point Assessment

Your apprentice will be assessed against the apprenticeship standard using various assessment methods. The assessment considers your apprentice's overall performance in their job and will be completed by an independent End Point Assessment Organisation.
