Course programme

As from 14 October 2016, learners who have achieved a qualification recognised as an alternative to Essential Skills, as detailed under the apprenticeship framework, are not required to undertake Essential Skills qualification. However, if a learner’s WEST assessment identifies that the learner has essential skills deficits which would inhibit progress through the framework, this needs to be addressed.

The learner is required to complete six assessment routes in total, comprising of three mandatory assessment routes, three 'Supporting the Operation' assessment routes and one 'Job Specific' assessment route.

Assessment will take place in college via observation and the collation of evidence in a portfolio.
