The Engineering Manufacturing apprenticeship provides both academic development and the vocational work-based knowledge and skills to be successful in a dynamic manufacturing environment supporting the business needs of the company.
Support the business needs by providing specialist technical support for engineers, so that organisations can develop, produce or test new and existing products, processes, or procedures to meet a customer specification in terms of quality, cost and delivery, as efficiently and effectively as possible.
The apprenticeship offers both an academic qualification HNC Manufacturing Engineering alongside the vocational work-based learning with your employer. The HNC units selected support underpinning knowledge and align with the knowledge, skills and behaviour’s set within the end-point assessment.
This standard aligns with the following professional recognition:
Attendance on day release over 2.5 years to study Pearson BTEC Level 4 Higher National Certificate in Manufacturing Engineering.
Production of a work-based portfolio of evidence
End-point assessment activities within college and workplace.
As a guide, apprentices should expect to study for an additional 12 hours per week on top of their scheduled learning. Employers are expected to support their apprentice’s study by providing a workplace mentor and supporting meetings and assessments.
