This Business Administrator Apprenticeship is suitable for anyone who is involved in an administration focused role in any industry.
It aims to develop a highly transferable set of skills, knowledge and understanding across a range of administrative practices and tasks, which can be applied to all industries. As part of the apprenticeship, learners will study the City & Guilds Level 3 Diploma for the Business Administrator.
The objective of the qualification is to support a business administrators role in the workplace, providing the learners the opportunity to learn and evidence their knowledge and skills.
We have partnered with Mindful Education to deliver this Apprenticeship through our Online and On Campus model. Apprentices will attend college (or virtual sessions) will study online materials during allotted time at work.
Online: Lessons can be accessed at any time, using a mobile, tablet or desktop - meaning apprentices can fit their study around work commitments, minimising disruption in the workplace. Each lesson lasts around 45 minutes and is accompanied by animations and motion graphics to bring concepts to life. Exercises, interactive case studies and analytical tools help to enhance the learning experience further. Learners will be expected to spend 3-4 hours a week working on VLE-related activities.
On Campus: Apprentices benefit from face-to-face classes at college (or virtually) with an experienced tutor. A combination of classroom-based lessons, group exercises and discussion encourage apprentices to apply theory to real-life workplace situations.
This modern, flexible approach to Apprenticeship training empowers learners, minimises disruption to employers, and delivers tangible results in the workplace.
