IMPORTANCE OF FORMAL REVIEW
> The success of your apprentice employee is very important to us.
Their success is dependent on them, you as their employer and us as their training provider, all working together.
We want to...
> Ensure that you are fully involved in their qualification and career progression.
> Gain your valuable feedback on how
they are applying their learning to their role.
> Work with you in planning their on and off-the-job training.
> Make this as easy as possible for you, we know how busy you are.
> How can you support?
A requirement of the apprenticeship programme is three-way formal reviews every 12 weeks. These reviews allow a shared understanding of progress against the apprenticeship standard between the apprentice, the employer and the training provider. The
formal review is the perfect opportunity
to discuss employability, careers support and development activities with your apprentice. Your Vocational Coach can direct you to our suite of resources.
We need your involvement in formal reviews.
We recognise that it can often be difficult to make the time to undertake formal reviews with your apprentice, we do appreciate how busy you are. However, it is a requirement of the Education and Skills Funding Agency and Ofsted that reviews take place at least every 12 weeks. Failure to meet this requirement could mean that funding is stopped, and training suspended.
> What happens next?
Your Vocational Coach from Aspiration Training will contact you to talk through how the formal review process works, discuss your involvement and forward plan the dates of the reviews with you and your apprentice.
