Senior Leader Apprenticeship

Welcome to our information page for employers of Senior Leader PgDip apprentices. If you require further information, please contact the Apprenticeships Unit or call (+44) 0161 247 3720 (9:30am - 4pm Monday to Friday). 

You play a crucial role in supporting your apprentice’s learning and identifying opportunities for the development of their management skills. We are keen for you to play an active role in the apprenticeship. Please bookmark this page as it is regularly updated.

These sessions include:

Apprentice timetables

Apprentices will access their timetables through their Virtual Learning Environment, once they have enrolled.

Apprenticeship standard

The apprenticeship standard provides the building blocks for our Senior Leader Apprenticeship. It is the blueprint for the development of our apprentices across the duration of the course. The standard will be used regularly during reviews as a point of reference, and we recommend that you familiarise yourself with its contents.  

End-point assessment (EPA) guidance 

The EPA is an integral component of the course. The degree will be achieved upon successful completion of this assessment. The EPA is designed in collaboration with employers and applies to all organisations delivering this apprenticeship.
