It’s National Apprenticeship Week! Supporting those who make apprenticeships a success

It’s National Apprenticeship Week, and we want to celebrate all those who help to make apprenticeships a success! Today, we’re sharing our most popular webinar of the year with you – Bringing Quality and Compliance Together for Apprenticeships – for all those involved in the management and delivery of apprenticeships.

In recent years, the priorities of the ESFA and Ofsted have become increasingly aligned. Whether it’s initial assessment, curriculum design, off-the-job training or achievement at end-point assessment – the link between compliance and quality has never been stronger.

That’s why we hosted this practical free webinar – to help you set your priorities for quality and compliance, understand what this means practically for your organisation, staff and apprentices, and how both should work together.

Drawing from our work with over 1,000 providers – and hosted jointly with Louise Doyle (SDN’s quality lead) and by David Lockhart-Hawkins (SDN’s compliance lead) – this session explored:

  • The top five compliance priorities for apprenticeships
  • The top five quality priorities for apprenticeships
  • How these priorities overlap and relate to each other
  • Practical steps you can take to efficiently and effectively deliver on these priorities in your role and organisation
