What You Get From TSW Apprenticeships
Apprenticeship consultation
When you enquire, we’ll visit you to discuss your needs, the apprenticeship process, and introduce you to our service. We’ll help you build a learning roadmap to enhance your business performance via further education. We’ll supply supporting literature, so you can digest the detail and set expectations within your organisation.
Recruitment support
We can help you to identify the people within your organisation who would benefit from the qualifications. It’s a completely free apprenticeship consultation, so you can take a look at the opportunities, shortlist the candidates and learn about the work-based apprenticeship programme offered by the Welsh Government.
Awareness session
This is the springboard for the apprenticeship where we set expectations with your candidates. Their Training Advisor works with them to lay out the educational roadmap ahead, learn how they’ll be measured, and what support they’ll receive from their assessors, you and the business. It’s a great opportunity to ask questions and set expectations about the time and energy demanded by the qualifications.
Health and safety appraisal
We’ll visit your place of work and conduct a health and safety appraisal document. It’s a mandatory exercise to prove your organisation is a safe environment for Welsh Government apprentices. We conduct and manage the paperwork entirely, so all you need to do is show us around. Once complete, it’s valid for four years, so you can easily take on more apprentices, or bring other qualifications into your organisation.
On-call assessors
Learning doesn’t just happen during business hours; that’s why our assessors are on hand 24/7 via email, text and WhatsApp to support your candidates.
Employer Engagement Visits
Feedback and evaluation help us to see how successfully the learning is transferring into your organisation, so we can work with you to measure the returns.
That’s why we book a six-month Employer Engagement Visit health check with you and your apprentice.
We walk the candidate through a quick survey, where we discuss their learning experience so far and the quality of the programme. The questions are standardised, so we can collate and compare data between organisations to apply real adjustments.
Then we review with you to see if the programme is meeting your expectations, whether you can engage with the apprentices and their work, and if you’ve noticed the candidate demonstrating knowledge and competence.
We’re on hand to support you with any queries as the apprenticeship progresses.
It means that everybody is able to access training, no matter how big their training budget.”
