Individual employers will set the recruitment and selection criteria for their Apprenticeships. In order to optimise success, candidates will typically have 4 GCSEs at Grade C/4 or equivalent, including Mathematics, English and a Science.
The workplace competency is assessed by the candidate completing a portfolio of evidence gathered from workplace activities.
The Technical certificate is assessed through the completion of college assignments.
Upon completion of the above training you will be required to complete an End Point Assessment which be delivered by the End Point assessment team.
The course offers progression to the HNC and is a recognised means of career progression within the engineering industry.
