The Level 3 Lead Adult Care Worker Apprenticeship is not a taught course, there is no college attendance required. You will learn the knowledge, skills and behaviours during your normal working hours. You will be assigned an assessor who will provide you with resources and support to complete each unit through a range of assessments.
Apprentices will be assessed and prepared for the Apprenticeship End Point Assessment by their assessor through a range of methods, including written assignments, direct observation in the workplace, professional discussions and the preparation of a portfolio of evidence which will be used in the End Point Assessment. This is the final assessment an apprentice undertakes to complete their apprenticeship and is carried out by an independent assessor.
Apprentices must record a minimum of 370 hours of learning and development, this is called ‘Off the Job Training’, which must take place during your paid working hours. This can include work shadowing, training, workshops, online learning, mentoring, time for assignment writing or revision. In fact, any learning and development that supports learning on the apprenticeship can be recorded.
