POELT Finished

[Shortyshan]

I thought the apprenticeship started January 2021?

I have my start date call tomorrow so I’m going to add it to my questions list

Let us know when you find out please mate! Be good to know

My training starts at the end of March and it's definitely the diploma.

[Barkingmad2]

Plantpot did you ask or did they tell you you’re doing the diploma?

[PlantPot]

After I got my call I got a detailed email about dates and starting the job and it says that you have been enrolled on the diploma programme

[Barkingmad2]

Oh right. Maybe there is a delay in the apprenticeship starting? I’m defo going to ask tonight on my call

[Shortyshan]

Maybe people are getting confused because from work I’ve heard it’s the same sort of initial training and then you start the job and there’s workbooks and assessments as you work over the next year.

Who knows so confusing!

Barkingmad can you pm me at all please got a few questions to ask

[kingofthekippax]

No confirmed start date for apprenticeship, however both courses offer level 3 qualifications. The current training is 8 weeks including 2 of C&R and 13 workbooks completed during the 8 weeks. When the apprenticeship is rolled out you will still do initial training with additional weeks at stages during your first 12 months. Lots more paper work and workbooks on the apprenticeship.
Whichever course you complete will give you the basics and your real learning will be done upon return to your establishment and stepping onto the Landings.
