The team at ID has an impressive track record of delivery of workplace learning and as an established training provider we are able to ensure a wide range of expertise, knowledge and understanding of vocational training and workforce development.

Apprenticeships are work-based training programmes designed around the needs of employers, which lead to national recognised qualifications. They are an effective means of filling skills gaps in current and future workforces for both existing and new employees. An apprenticeship is a combination of on and off the job training and learning.

An Apprenticeship includes the following components:

 

• A knowledge based element.

• A competency based element.

• Transferable or "key skills".

• A module on employment rights and responsibilities and personal learning and thinking skills.
