Case 1
John leaves school with almost no qualifications. He has decided that he would like to work as an electrician. He applies to a number of local firms for a job. However, he is not even invited to interview by any of them. After several frustrating months, he decides to talk to a local training provider about how he should train himself for his chosen career, in order that he might get on the first rung of the ladder. The provider, by chance, is one that offers qualifications that involve an Individual Learning Plan, associated with an apprenticeship. This involves some classroom attendance, for learning of theory and practical skills, and some work placement for on-the-job practice and experience. John is overjoyed to find that for his workplace practical experience he is placed in one of the organizations that he had previously applied to, and that some of the assessment is competency-based in the workplace as well as at the training provider. At his induction event, John is surprised to find an observer from an inspection agency.
At the training provider, a learning resource centre is available, which provides a wide range of facilities, freely available, including e-learning packages, books, journals, videos, practice tests, and other material - everything he needs to progress. As well as the written tests, his apprenticeship contains a vocationally based certificate, which confirms his competence in the basics of the job. Having successfully completed his training programme, John then accepts a paid secondment with the firm that he has been working with during his programme, to further his career, in the hope that if he is successful, it will eventually take him on, on a full-time basis.
