FOR EMPLOYEES
Training Requirements
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.
The video below 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.
Recording Off-The-Job-Training
As off-the-job training is a mandatory requirement of leadership and management apprenticeships, it is vital that this training is documented.
This documentation serves as evidence of the knowledge, skills and behaviours gained that are aligned with the apprenticeship standard. This is invaluable for End Point Assessments, certifications, and career progression. It also enables employers and us, as your training provider, to assess the effectiveness of the training. It also tracks the apprentice's progress and helps us to any areas that may require additional support or attention, which can be raised in the regular tripartite reviews.
Apprentices and line managers can record and review off-the-job training activity using our learning management system.
