Knowledge learning outcomes will be assessed via on-screen assessments, externally set and marked by the awarding organisations and a range of assignments, projects and written assessments covering theory and practical skills, externally set by the awarding organisation. For performance learning outcomes (‘skills’ and ‘behaviours’), the apprentice will complete a portfolio of evidence to show this. The majority of assessments will be graded pass/fail. The exception is the theory assessments (onscreen and written) which forms part of ‘6k Electrical scientific principles and technologies’ unit. This unit allows apprentices to demonstrate a greater breadth and level of understanding with sufficient marks available to differentiate between pass, merit and distinction. 1-2-1 assessment and support to build this portfolio and evidence the behaviours, skill and knowledge elements will take place in your workplace, at mutually convenient times and dates with your Skills Coach. All apprentices are required to allocate 20% of their weekly working hours towards the completion of the apprenticeship programme Career Options and Progression This apprenticeship will support you to progress into the following roles: • Installation Electrician • Maintenance Electrician Upon successful completion of the Apprenticeship you will have satisfied the requirements for registration as Eng Tech by the Engineering Council
