What is an apprenticeship?

An apprenticeship is a blend of a full-time job with training. The apprentice will split their time 80/20. 80% of their working time will be spent carrying out their day-to-day job responsibilities. 20% of their time will be ‘off-the-job’ and spent working towards their apprenticeship qualification.

From August 1st 2022, the new minimum off the-job training requirement for a full-time apprentice is 20% of a 30 hour week (even if the apprentice works more than 30 hours per week); this equates to an average of 6 hours of off-the-job training per week.

Vital to the success of the apprenticeship, the learner has to be actively working towards the standards at least 20% of the time they are paid by you over a minimum duration of 12 months.

I would highly recommend doing an apprenticeship or any other course with Whyy? Change. The help and support I received from all the staff was like no other and I always received 100% from all of them. I’ll be very very impressed and shocked if anyone else can top the level of kindness, helpfulness, passion and respect shown by Whyy? Change. Whether you're straight out of school or looking for a career change after 20 years, Whyy? is the one to choose.

I’ve recently completed my Chartered Institute of Marketing (CIM) Level 4 Digital Marketing Qualification through an apprenticeship. Emma was extremely helpful throughout the onboarding process and explained everything. My tutor was Laura, who answered any question I had and explained the content in multiple ways if I didn’t understand a certain topic. I can’t recommend Whyy? Change enough it was a great environment to learn within. Such a supportive, caring and encouraging environment.

My experience with Whyy? Change for my CIM training has been massively positive. After looking for a new provider after a negative experience, I was extremely happy with both the quality of training, attentiveness, and support from all the staff. I would highly recommend Whyy?
