It is really important that your apprenticeship and day to day work are integrated, as your job is part of your apprenticeship learning journey. If there is anything at work that you feel could have an impact on your apprenticeship, then you should inform your Work Based Learning Tutor (WBLT) who will be able to help you and identify any necessary next steps.
Examples of things that would affect your apprenticeship are:
- you are not being given your protected learning time (6 hours per week or 20% of your hours)
- your line manager or mentor is not engaging with your apprenticeship or tripartite meetings
- you are struggling to link your job tasks to your learning
- you are not receiving help identifying suitable work-based projects
- you are not getting feedback or guidance on your progress
- your workload is preventing you from keeping up with your apprenticeship requirements
- your organisation is going through a restructure and your job is at risk
- your role is changing
- you have been made redundant/are at risk of redundancy, or
- you are thinking of applying for a new job.
