20% Off-the-job Training

Each programme lasts a minimum of 12 months and is blended into your daily job, with 20% of your normal working hours spent on the programme as ‘Dedicated Development Time’ (DDT), so if you apply, you'll need to be committed to learning for this whole period.

Achieving your 20% DDT requires discipline, but there's some flexibility!

DDT includes time spent in workshops, time spent working on assignments or completing resources in the Open Elms e-portfolio system. It also includes any self-guided activity that relates to the apprenticeship standard, which could include shadowing colleagues, attending conferences/webinars, reading books and listening to podcasts, and time you're learning new and relevant skills/knowledge on-the-job. Your Programme Lead will help you keep a record of DDT using a monthly reflective log.

Attend all Workshops and Progress Review meetings (except where on annual leave or sick leave)
