HR Apprenticeship

Ann

Hi, I am looking towards up apprenticeship for my next career move (HR Advisor)at work and wanted to know what it this will mean, I only thought apprenticeships are for students who have just left universities . Any information on apprenticeships for career progression will be helpful. Thanks Ann

  • Hi Ann,
    I started a Level 3 HR Support Apprenticeship a couple of months ago- my employer wanted to support my learning and I am doing my Apprenticeship online. I've been working for 30+ years so am definitely not a college leaver!! I am loving the Apprenticeship, it's online so fits in with my work, I have schedule study time weekly and love that I am learning while I work.
    Good Luck.

  • I wasn't clear from your post but it looks like you are an associate-level currently and looking to do a L7. If so, you can do an apprenticeship in your current role (as long as your role is aligned and will give you the opportunity to embed your learning) as an upskilling opportunity. If your employer pays into the levy they can either get the training for free or for a small sum. They just have to commit to giving you at least 6 hours a week towards your studying! there would be not change to your role or salary. If you are on a FTC it just needs to last for the duration of the programme. If you are looking for a new job as an apprenticeship, likelihood salary will be at the apprenticeship rates and doubtful that a L7 would be offered to a new employee, my company have always done L3 and L5 traditionally and L7 is for perm employees upskilling.
