Off-the-job training is a mandatory requirement of all apprenticeships. The minimum requirement per week is six hours. Hult Ashridge apprenticeships typically require around 8-9 hours to successfully achieve a high-quality outcome. All off-the-job training must be recorded and take place during contracted working hours (not overtime).
What Counts as Off-The-Job Training?
Off-the-job training doesn't necessarily mean spending physical time away from the office. The required hours can be achieved through a variety of activities which can be completed during the working day.
This video highlights some of the key benefits of off-the-job training in supporting apprenticeships acquiring the knowledge, skills and behaviours outlined by the apprenticeship standard.
