This session will explore the different models for ensuring that feedback from apprentices is influencing how we deliver degree apprenticeships. We will explore good practice in apprentice staff liaison committees, surveys and other sources of feedback from apprentices during their apprenticeship. We will hear from universities about what worked well and explore how to link feedback to school and faculty governance through to university wide review in their Self-Assessment Reports Members Only - You will need a login to access the booking page.

This deep dive session will explore the impact of the increased focus on Initial needs assessment and skills scans – this session explores the practicalities of implementing a thorough skill scan process and how members approach this process to ensure that there is a direct link between this and the Training Plan, setting the right starting point for apprentices. This session will explore the ‘ideal’ skills scan and consider how the skill scan and initial needs assessment should be used throughout the apprenticeship. We will hear from universities about the changes that they’ve made to their processes to embed this vital stage in the apprenticeship.   Members Only - You will need a login to access the booking page.

This session will look at successful practice in integrating on the job learning activities as part of the planned apprenticeship. We will explore the latest ESFA guidance in practice and hear from members who have successfully engaged employers in a joint plan. We will hear from universities about how they have managed to engage apprentices and keeping their learning logs up to date, work with employers to embed on the job through complementary activity and embed off the job record keeping as part of the university regulations and conditions of progression.
