QA Frontloaded Apprenticeships

Designed to power potential, faster

Adding instant value to your organisation

As the digital skills gap continues to grow, recruiting and re-skilling your workforce to become effective in brand new digital skills involves time, effort and investment. If you’re looking to drive your organisation towards rapid growth in the near future, your team must acquire a significant skill set in a short period of time. The answer to this? Frontloaded Apprenticeships.

Our new Frontloaded apprenticeships have been designed to give your team a brand new skill set that they can apply to their role, faster than ever before. They’ve been designed to inject cutting-edge talent, faster than an average apprenticeship. Apprentices are exposed to an intensive delivery-set up, giving them the opportunity to not only personalise their learning experience but also to learn extensive data, DevOps and network engineering skill sets quicker.

What are the benefits of frontloaded apprenticeships

How does frontloaded work

The accelerated apprenticeship provides 10 weeks of up-front training to start the learner journey. In this bootcamp, learners will gain all the practical knowledge to enter the workplace as a Data Analyst, DevOps practitioner, or Software Engineer. They learn from experts, digital learning pathways, sandbox virtual labs, and skills coaching so they are ready to enter your business at its conclusion and contribute.

After the 10 weeks, skills are mapped and assessed, and any skills gaps are supported with an additional digital skills learning bundle. They enter the workplace having completed most of their off-the-job learning, ready to focus on results.
