The course is delivered both on and off the job. The total duration for this full time course is 1559 nominal hours*. This includes work placement time and is scheduled around but does not include essential learning subjects.
*All Apprenticeships have a nominal term - this is the timeframe that is on the Apprenticeship training contract. The nominal hour total is the amount of time that it's reasonably expected that someone could become competent and complete their Apprenticeship.
